BQ25700A: Simple charging without Using Host Communication

Part Number: BQ25700A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ25700, BQ25703, BQ2057,

In my new project I want to charge a 7,4V Li-ion battery (two cells) with a lower Input: 5V from USB.

In my previous post I was advised to use BQ25700 or BQ25703 ICs.

Reading the datasheet it seems mandatory to have a communication with an host.

Could it be possible to use the IC without any external communication? 

For example, like you do in the BQ2057.

Best Regards,

Mattia
