BQ25570: Charging LiFePo4 Batteries

Part Number: BQ25570

Tool/software:

Hi TI Team,

I am currently evaluating the BQ25570 energy harvesting boost charger for use in a system powered by a LiFePO₄ battery. I understand that LiFePO₄ cells typically have a full charge voltage of around 3.6–3.65 V.

According to the datasheet, the BAT_OV setting defines the overvoltage threshold. If I configure VBAT_OV to 3.65 V, will the BQ25570 safely and reliably charge a single-cell LiFePO₄ battery?

Thank you for your support and clarification.

Best regards,

Daniel
