bq25628/bq25629 Battery Charger ICs
Texas Instruments bq25628/bq25629 Battery Charger ICs are highly-integrated 2A switch-mode battery charge management and system power path management devices for single-cell Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries. The solution is highly integrated with built-in current sensing, loop compensation, input reverse-blocking FET (RBFET, Q1), high-side switching FET (HSFET, Q2), low-side switching FET (LSFET, Q3), and battery FET (BATFET, Q4) between system and battery. The device uses narrow VDC power path management, regulating the system slightly above the battery voltage without dropping below a configurable minimum system voltage. The low impedance power path optimizes switch-mode operation efficiency, reduces battery charging time, extends battery life during discharging phase, and the ultra-low 0.15µA ship mode current extends battery shelf life. The I2C serial interface with charging and system settings makes bq25628 and bq25629 truly flexible solutions.
