The purpose of this type of package, with flip chip as the die-attach method, is to minimize electrical capacitance and inductance (parasitics) associated with wire bonds.
The pulse amplitude was raised until the electrical capacitance (~15 pF) of the lithographic gap was charged and the voltage reached the steady stale.
The electrical capacitance of the battery will then fall due to both the lack of surface area for the reaction to occur and the lead and sulfate ions in the crystals which cannot react.
