BQ25713EVM in TI BQ24xxx / BQ25xxx Battery Charge Family
The BQ25713EVM is an evaluation module series from Texas Instruments designed for the BQ25713 I2C controlled NVDC buck-boost charge controller. It supports multi-chemistry battery charging including Li-ion, Li-polymer, and LiFePO4 for 1-cell to 4-cell configurations. This hardware allows developers to test high-efficiency power conversion, narrow-voltage DC charging, and flexible input voltage ranges from 3.5V to 24V, making it a critical tool for developing robust battery management systems in mobile and industrial sectors.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within this evaluation sub-family primarily differ in their specific IC configuration and communication protocols. While the BQ25713EVM focuses on I2C communication, closely related modules may utilize SMBus interfaces or different MOSFET ratings to demonstrate varying power levels. Additionally, different EVM versions may come pre-configured for specific cell counts or include different passive components to showcase optimized performance at either 800kHz or 1.2MHz switching frequencies.
