The BQ25601 is
a highly-integrated 3-A switch-mode battery charge management
and system power path management device for single cell
Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries. The low impedance power path
optimizes switch-mode operation efficiency, reduces battery charging time, and
extends battery life during discharging phase. The I 2C serial interface with charging and system settings makes the
device a truly flexible solution.
The BQ25601 feature s fast charging with high input voltage support for a wide range of smartphones, tablets
and portable devices. Its
input voltage and current regulation deliver maximum charging power to the battery. It also integrates a
bootstrap diode for the high-side gate drive for simplified system design. The I 2C serial interface with charging and system settings makes the
device a truly flexible solution.
The device supports a wide range of input sources,
including standard USB host port, USB charging port, and USB compliant high voltage
adapter. The device sets the default input current limit based on the built-in
USB interface. To set the default input current limit, the device takes the result from the detection circuit in the
system, such as USB PHY device. The device is compliant with the USB 2.0
and USB 3.0 power specs with input current and voltage regulation. The device also meets the USB
On-the-Go (OTG) operation power rating specification by supplying 5.15 V on VBUS
with a constant current limit up to 1.2 A.
The power path management regulates the system
slightly above battery voltage but does not drop below the 3.5-V minimum system
voltage
(programmable). With this feature, the system maintains operation even when
the battery is completely depleted or removed. When the input current limit or
voltage limit is reached, the power path management automatically reduces the charge
current to zero. As the system load continues to increase, the power path
discharges the battery until the system power requirement is met. This Supplement
mode prevents overloading the input source.
The device initiates and completes a charging
cycle without software control. It senses battery voltage and charges the battery in
three phases: pre-conditioning, constant current, and constant voltage. At the end
of the charging cycle, the charger automatically terminates when the charge current
is below a preset limit and the battery voltage is higher than the recharge
threshold. If the fully charged battery falls below the recharge threshold, the
charger automatically starts another charging cycle.
The charger provides various safety features for
battery charging and system operations including: battery negative temperature
coefficient thermistor monitoring, charging safety timer, and overvoltage and
overcurrent protections. The thermal regulation reduces charge current when the
junction temperature exceeds 110°C (programmable). The STAT output reports charging status and any fault
conditions. Other safety features include battery temperature sensing for charge and
boost mode, thermal regulation and thermal shutdown, and input UVLO and overvoltage
protection. The VBUS_GD bit indicates if a good power source is present. The
INT output immediately notifies the host when a fault
occurs.
The device also provides the QON pin for BATFET enable and
reset control to exit low power ship mode or the full system reset function.
The device is available in a 24-pin, 4 mm × 4 mm x
0.75 mm thin WQFN package
.
