BQ24072: AA battery

Part Number: BQ24072

Tool/software:

Hi,

1. As a product specification, we are considering a design that can connect either a Li-ion battery or an AA battery (3S). Is it OK to connect a 3-line AA battery to this IC?

2. In this case, is there any pin function that needs to be set as the IC?

Best Regards,

Nishie

  • Hi Nishie,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    AA batteries should not be connected to this IC. I'd recommend using a load switch, ideal diode, or similar device for an alternative power path to supply the system load when AA batteries are used instead of a Li-ion battery.

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Best regards,

    Alec
