BQ24133: Is this part can use for my application

Part Number: BQ24133

Part Number:BQ24133RGYR

Requirements: Discharge current up to 2.5 A and charging current up to 1.3A.

And a 3.7V (5000 mAH) battery pack (2-3 cells arranged in parallel)is going to connect with the IC 

Also, ensure that is this part is available for production(5000-1000 )

  • Hi,

       The parallel configuration of battery cells doesn't matter to a charging IC. It still presents the same max charge regulation voltage that the charger needs to charge the batteries to. As BQ241333 can support your charge regulation voltage and charge current, you can use this part. Regarding cell balancing of parallel cells, this is not done by the charger IC, and you can use an external chip solution for cell balancing if required.
