If the voltage at the SNS pin is greater than VSNSLO or less than VSNSHI, the bq24401 switches the MOD output
high to pass charge current to the battery. When the SNS voltage is less than VSNSLO or greater than VSNSHI, the
bq24401 switches the MOD output low to shut off charging current to the battery. A hysteresis capacitor (CHYS) is
required between the CMOD pin and the SNS pin to add a healthy amount of hysteresis to the current sense
signal (see Figure 7). Typical hysteresis values are between 5 and 25 mV. The amount of hysteresis can be
calculated by examining the capacitive divider formed by CHYS and Cf.
