[0045] Working principle: When the chip 10 is in the power-off state, a lithium battery can be plugged in, that is, VDD is connected, and the chip 10 enters the standby state. Alternatively, when there is no lithium battery, VCC can be plugged in, and the chip 10 enters the charging state from the power-off state. If there is a lithium battery, the chip 10 first enters the standby state from the power-off state, and then enters the charging state. In the charging state, the LED device displays the power level. Three LED devices can be used to display the power level, or a light can be used to display the power level by the number of flashes. When the charging port is unplugged, the chip 10 enters the standby state. In the standby state, the chip 10 can be activated and transferred to the efuse burning mode through pin multiplexing technology. In this mode, some static functions and parameters of the chip 10 can be adjusted. After the burning is completed, the power is turned off to enter the power-off mode, and the power is turned on to enter the standby mode. In the standby mode, the selectable working state can be entered by a combination of actions such as buttons. In the selectable working state, the sensor changes can be caused by inhalation to enter the output mode. In the selectable working state, the LED selection mode can be entered by a combination of actions such as buttons. In this state, the LED behavior indication can be selected, such as checking the power level. In the selectable working state, you can enter the preheating mode by pressing buttons and other combinations of actions. In this state, you can select the preheating time and enter the preheating mode randomly. After the preheating is completed, if no action is taken within the specified time, the preheating mode returns to the selectable working state. In the selectable working state, you can enter the output gear adjustment mode by pressing buttons and other combinations of actions. In this state, if you do not smoke within the specified time after the setting is completed, it returns to the selectable working state, and the set gear is maintained until the next setting or before the power is turned off.
