TIBQ24610RGET
Overview
The BQ24610RGET is a highly integrated stand-alone switch-mode battery charge controller designed for Lithium-Ion and Lithium-Polymer chemistries. It supports 1 to 6 series cells and features a synchronous PWM controller with a fixed 600 kHz switching frequency to achieve high efficiency. The device includes dynamic power management and automatic system power selection, allowing the system to be powered from either the adapter or the battery.
Why Choose This Part
The BQ24610 supports a wide input voltage range up to 28V and offers exceptional 0.5 percent charge voltage accuracy. Its integrated gate drivers for external N-channel MOSFETs enable high efficiency at charging currents up to 10A, while the dynamic power management feature prevents the system from crashing by reducing charge current when the adapter is overloaded.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Designers can evaluate the controller using the BQ24610EVM evaluation module. Implementation requires external N-channel MOSFETs, a power inductor, and sense resistors to set the charge and adapter current limits. Refer to the datasheet for thermal layout guidelines for the 24-pin VQFN package to ensure proper heat dissipation at high currents.
