How can the BQ24747 be used to support multiple chemistries during startup? Is there a list of chemistries and their charge characteristics/profiles/charge times like in the .chem files used in the BQ78PL116?
We want to implement a system that accepts multiple battery chemistries with industry standard battery sizes (i.e. like a bunch of cell phone lithium ion batteries to make a battery pack, alkaline or even lead-acid). It should charge, monitor and have protection circuitry to prevent overcharging from an AC input. We believe that the combination of the BQ24747 and BQ20Z75-180 should work. Should we store the charge configuration information in an external EEPROM or something? Is there another set of devices that can implement this?
