I have found similar questions to mine on this forum, but I want to be sure that I am on the right track for my application.
I am currently powering a low power microcontroller (max current draw of about 16 mA, typically around 3 mA) with a 3.7 V button cell, but now I am looking into being able to use a rechargeable Lithium Polymer battery to wirelessly recharge the battery. But I need the microcontroller to remain on while it is being charged. From what I've seen, I think that the BQ51050B is what I need for the design, but I've never done inductive charging before, so I want to be sure.
Is this the right part for my application? And if so, are there other things I need on the battery-side, or do I just connect the BQ51050 in parallel with my controller and the battery?
Thank you.
