The bq51014 seems to have overcurrent and overvoltage protection for adapter input. Surely, you’d always want that?
RX ICs bq51014 and bq51013A and I can’t find any difference between the two.
Hello
Both devices have output overcurrent protection but differ in how this is handled. The adapter overvoltage is a new feature that has been added to the bq51014.
There are three key differences between the bq51014 and bq51013A:
1.) 014 has CS100 feature – The RX will report when output has reached a user defined min current that will typically represent Charge Complete or Charge Status of 100%.
2.) 014 has AD-OVP of 12.5V – If an adapter with a voltage of greater than 12.5V is connected the pass fet will not turn on, AD_EN will not switch AD input to Out.
3.) 014 has Over Current Shutdown – End Power Transfer is sent to the transmitter during over current. For the 013A the output LDO will limit current.

Hi Bill,
I compare bq51013A and bq51014 schematic and find bq51014 need (1) one diode from AD pin to RECT pin (2) Rterm from TERM pin to ground.
Q1: Can you advice the purpose of these two devices?
Q2: Can you recommend suitable diode part number?
Q3: which part I should suggest to customers?
Thank you and regards
Paul,
If these features are not needed for the customer, he can use the 13A instead.
