BQ24075T: About BAT pins when VIN=0V

Part Number: BQ24075T

Hi,

What is the recommended operating voltage range that can be input to the BAT pin when VIN=0V?

How does Vout operate when the input voltage of the BAT pin falls below min of the recommended operating voltage range? Does Vout=0V?

Best Regards,

Nishie

  • Hello Nishie

    Thanks for reaching out on E2E. In regard to the physical aspect of the IC, the absolute Maximum Rating for the VBAT pin is -0.3V to 5V.

    If you look at the simplified circuit on the first page of the d/s, for the BAT pin and the OUT pin. There is an NMOS FET that is connected from the BAT pin to the OUT pin. VOUT will be (VBAT - Voltage Drop of BATFET). Please be aware, there must be enough input power to cover the load on OUT.

  • Hi Rafael-san,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I looked at the data sheet 9.3.1 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO).

    When VIN=0V, VSYS=Low, does the NMOS FET (Q2) always stay on regardless of the VBAT value? I would like to know if it turns off when it is between -0.3V and 5V, which is within the absolute maximum rating range.

    Best Regards,

  • Hello Nishie,

    Yes in that case the NMOS would be on to supply power from the battery. For Q2 to be on then VBAT would have to be >0.4V. Then you would see voltage on VSYS.
