Figure 7-1. Entering CHARGE or RELAX Mode
Once in RELAX mode, the BQ28Z610-R2 waits until an OCV measurement is taken, which occurs after:
1. A dV/dt condition of < 4 µV/s is satisfied,
2. After 5 hours from when

,
3. Upon gas gauge reset,
4. An IT Enable command is issued.
The determination of when to update the OCV data is part of the normal Impedance Track algorithm and is not
specific to the cell balancing algorithm.
