Chapter 4 — Theory of Operation
Power management software on the PXA255 uses the battery voltage and
temperature data for temperature-compensated fuel gauging and low-
battery detection. Three levels of battery status are indicated through an
icon in the status bar:

Low-Battery Handling
The first three battery status thresholds are defined in software; the final
critically low battery threshold is based on hardware comparator U36.

* These temperature ranges are approximate because the Vbat temperature compensation is not calibrated at
manufacture. Also, because the battery level is averaged over 10 samples at 3-second intervals, it may take up to
30 seconds for a threshold crossing to take effect.
