BQ24295: The off current is very high at 6mA

Part Number: BQ24295

Right now our off current is very high because of the “BQ24295”.

I need to find out the following.

  1. How do we turn off this chip BQ24295, and still be able to turn on our device?
  2. Why is the current consumption so high when we turn off our device?

    Hey vuu,

    I have a few questions:

    What is your "device"?

    Where is your "device" connected to on the bq24295?

    How much current are you seeing? Where are you measuring this current from? A schematic of your system would be very helpful.

    How are you turning off your "device"? What are the test conditions? 

    The bq24295 has a 32uA typical leakage current when only the battery is present, and the BATFET is enabled. When the charger is put into Shipping Mode, the BATFET is turned off, and leakage current is somewhere around ~16uA. When the charger is in Shipping Mode, a switch can be added between the QON pin and the BAT pin to re-enable the BATFET. 

    Let me know your comments. 

    Regards,

    Hi Joel,

    I sent you an email with these folks' schematic.

    Jason,

    Can you answer Joel's questions regarding turning off the push button controller and the test conditions that you're under. This would help.

    Thanks,

    Siby
