Hello !
I'm designing 2 cell (8.4V) Li-Ion battery charger with bq2057W.
The charger is integral part from final battery module and is important very low current consumption
after charging termination and VCC removal.
The design with transistor chosen.
For VCC used step up converter (lmr64010) from 5V to 9V without diode like in AN with mosfet.
By data sheet -
Automatic Low-Power Sleep Mode When VCC Is Removed.
This doesn’t match absolute maximum ratings:
Input voltage, SNS, BAT, TS, COMP (all with respect to GND) −0.3 V to VCC+0.3 V
My questions:
Do I need diode between Step up converter and VCC like in AN with mosfet?
Is this design safe and optimum for low power consumption from battery.
What is approximated or max current consumption from battery after VCC removal.
Thanks!
