PRECHARGE MODE CURRENT LIMITING RESISTOR SELECTION
The selection of this resistor value should take into account the maximum potential charge voltage, which should include
the voltage of a failed charger to ensure that 0-V and pre-charge mode current levels are within desirable limits under all
conditions.

This method ensures that the resistor is sized correctly to provide safe zero voltage charging and the optimal performance
during precharge.
