BQ51050 with Wired Charger And NTC

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ51050B

Hi, 

I would like know when the BQ51050 is used with a wired charger, which one should control the NTC? If I'm using the wired charger and happens a over-temperature in the battery the BQ51050 will go actuate?

Thanks

  • Mozart,

    The NTC is required to monitor the battery temperature.  When running with the bq51050B and a wired charger control should be done by the active charger.  Both chargers react to the out of temperature range by stopping the charge current.  If the bq51050B is monitoring the temperature but the wired charger is controlling the current, the bq51050B cannot impact the charge current.

    Regards,
