where η is the efficiency of the DC-DC converter (typi-
cally 85% to 95%).
To set the input current limit, use the SMBus to write a
16-bit InputCurrent() command using the data format
listed in
Write-Word protocol (see
code for InputCurrent() is 0x3F (0b00111111). When
RS1 = 10mΩ, the MAX8731A provides an input-current-
limit range of 256mA to 11.004A, with 256mA resolu-
tion. InputCurrent() settings from 1mA to 256mA result
in a current limit of 256mA. Upon reset the input current
limit is 256mA.
The MAX8731A includes a timer to terminate charging
if the charger does not receive a ChargeVoltage() or
ChargeCurrent() command within 175s. If a timeout
occurs, both ChargeVoltage() and ChargeCurrent()
commands must be resent to reenable charging.

The MAX8731A features dual remote sense, which
allows the rejection of board resistance and selector
resistance when used in either single- or dual-battery
systems. To fully utilize remote sensing, connect FBS_
directly to the battery interface through an unshared
battery sense trace in series with a 100Ω resistor, and
10nF capacitor (see Figure 1). In single-battery systems,
connect BATSEL directly to GND and use only FBSA.
Remote sensing cancels the effect of impedance in
series with the battery. This impedance normally caus-
es the battery charger to prematurely enter constant-
voltage mode with reducing charge current. The result
is that the last 20% of charging takes longer than nec-
essary. When in constant-voltage mode, the remaining
charge time is proportional to the total resistance in
series with the battery. Remote sensing reduces
charge time according to the following equation:
