 The nPM1300 PS, in section 6.2.11 lists the IBAT-LIM (typical battery current limit while discharging), as &amp;quot;1 to 2&amp;quot; Amps. 
 The questions are: 
 
 Why is this such a large range?

&lt;p&gt;This makes perfect sense now, thank you very much for clarifying!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sorry, I got this wrong the first time around and have first of all updated my last answer to question 2, which was misunderstood on my part. As for the discharge current limit. This is programmable via the &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fps_npm1300%2Fchapters%2Fcharger.html&amp;amp;resultof=%22%42%43%48%47%49%53%45%54%44%49%53%43%48%41%52%47%45%4c%53%42%22%20%22%62%63%68%67%69%73%65%74%64%69%73%63%68%61%72%67%65%6c%73%62%22%20&amp;amp;anchor=register.BCHGISETDISCHARGEMSB"&gt;BCHGISETDISCHARGEMSB &lt;/a&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span dir="ltr"&gt;and &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fps_npm1300%2Fchapters%2Fcharger.html&amp;amp;resultof=%22%42%43%48%47%49%53%45%54%44%49%53%43%48%41%52%47%45%4c%53%42%22%20%22%62%63%68%67%69%73%65%74%64%69%73%63%68%61%72%67%65%6c%73%62%22%20&amp;amp;anchor=register.BCHGISETDISCHARGELSB"&gt;BCHGISETDISCHARGELSB &lt;/a&gt;registers which is why the current limit specification is so wide.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span dir="ltr"&gt;I hope this clears things up a bit. Sorry about the misunderstanding.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thank you for that, however, I believe this is a different parameter.&amp;nbsp; I am asking about the Discharge current limit, as opposed to the Charge current limit:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is a mistake in the product specification, and I have reported it to our designers now. You can use the following formulas to find the actual charge current limits here (section 6.2.4 in the PS):&amp;nbsp;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/4/2335.pastedimage1700807748612v2.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;And yes, they will be affected by the temperature, but not a lot by the PCB layout I believe&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Correction&lt;/strong&gt;. No, there is very little power dissipation, and it is not thermally limited by package/PCB design. It is directly linked to the RONcharger specification.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/4/pastedimage1701172327880v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have asked one of our PMIC designers about advice on this and will get back to you as soon as I hear from them.&lt;/p&gt;
