Use case of TPS65982 + BQ Battery Charger

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65982, BQ24780

Dear All,

Let me ask use case of TPS65982.
Please refer to attaching file.

【1】
When a customer uses TPS65982 and BQ Battery Charger (for example BQ24780)
in their application together, will ACDRV Pin of BQ Battery Charger be unused?
(Does TPS65982 perform a opening/closing of the FET of each power supply line?)

【2】
Is there the circuit sample design when customer uses TP65982 and
BQ Battery Charger together? Will you provide it to us if there is it?

【3】
Is Figure83 of the data sheet the thing which showed the following flow in the situation
that keep connecting a USB connector in application?
 Barrel Jack insert (to application)
 Barrel Jack remove (from application)
 Barrel Jack insert (to application)

Best Regards,
Tsuguhiko Asai

  • Dear All,

    Would you tell me about this question's answering situation?
    Would you answer question 【1】~【3】, even partly?

    Our customer needs an answer by May-6th.

  • Hi Tsuguhiko-san,

    [1] The TPS65982 provides GPIO control that can be used to disable the barrel jack charging PFETS when a PD contract is in place. The sink path on each TPS65982 will protect reverse current flow from system to VBUS automatically.  The ACDRV could be used to control a set of NFETs to prevent reverse current flow into the barrel jack connector, however the system would have to know when there is a PD contract to determine if it should drive enable ACDRV. This should be capable by modifying the registers on the BQ24780, but I would double check with the battery charger team.

    [2] We have an example for the barrel jack path and the TPS65982 power path that we can share by email. Please send an email to usbpowerdelivery@list.ti.com

    Generally we feed the battery charger input from single or multiple Type-C PD charging ports. The system tend to get slightly more complex when wireless charging and barrel jack charging is added. 

    [3] Yes this is assuming that the Type-C connector is always connected.

  • Dear Jacob-San,

    Thank you very much for your best support.

    In addition,

    about supplying power from USB-PD or DC Barrel Jack to system

    in dead battery, let me ask more especial use case of TPS65982.

    Please refer to attaching file.

  • Asai-san,

    If you use a PFET to enable and disable the Barrel Jack connection, it will be OFF when the Barrel Jack is suddenly removed.

    The NFETs inside the TPS65982 will be ON when the PD contract is negotiated.

    In your diagram, removing the Barrel Jack will not cause the system to die, but removing the Type-C connection may cause the system to brown-out.

    Typically, we just use a Schottky diode to protect the Barrel Jack power supply from the PD Voltages that may be higher. This simple analog implementation prevents damage and brown-outs.
  • Especially Use Case Of TPS65892 [Addition].pdfDear Brian-San,

    Thank you very much for your kindly response.

    Let me confirm following.

    Does “The system” you say mean TPS65982 (and around circuits) ?

    Under flows of [1]~[4], may Vsys (on customer’s application) drop temporarily?

    (Please refer to the attaching file P3.)

    We expect that Vsys drop temporarily.

  • Dear jacob-San,

    Thank you for your best supports.
    I requested sharing an example design to the address that you appointed.
    The email title is "[Macnica] Sample Design of TP65982".
    Please support this.

    Best regards,
