BQ24610RGET in TI BQ24xxx / BQ25xxx Battery Charge Family
The BQ24610RGET is a highly integrated stand-alone switch-mode battery charge controller from Texas Instruments, designed specifically for multi-cell Lithium-Ion and Lithium-Polymer chemistries. It features a synchronous PWM controller with high-accuracy current and voltage regulation, charge preconditioning, termination, and charge status monitoring. By utilizing an external sense resistor, the device provides precise control over the charging profile, making it a reliable solution for efficient power management in complex multi-cell battery systems.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the BQ246x family differ mainly in their chemistry optimization and interface requirements. While the BQ24610 focuses on Li-Ion/Li-Polymer with integrated power-path control, related variants like the BQ24600 and BQ24617 offer different input voltage ranges or fixed versus adjustable output configurations. Package sizing remains consistent across the RGET series, though thermal pad layouts may vary slightly between industrial and automotive-qualified versions.
