BQ25710: Application requirement

Part Number: BQ25710
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ25720

Hi Team,

The charging current of the customer project needs up to 12A. The datasheet of BQ25710 shown that when it is 10mohm, the maximum charging current can supported 8.128A. Can BQ25710 change the charging precision resistor to 5mohm to support the charging current to 16A?
Can you help me confirm if this is possible? If feasible, how to design the layout?

Many thanks~

  • Hi Yadong,

    Theoretically, the customer could change the current sense and double the output current using BQ25710. 

    In fact, the customer is better off to use BQ25720, which has enhanced gate drive, and supports 5mohm current sense. 

    We have a 140W reference design on the web. Please check it out.

  • Hi Tiger:

               Wanna know the difference between BQ25710 and BQ25720? Do you have comparison table on these two devices?

  • Hi Liting,

    The BQ25720 has enhanced gate drive for high power, and additional feature.
