BQ2031: BQ2031 for Boost charge controller?

Lucas Schulte

Part Number: BQ2031
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ25700A

Is there any way to configure the BQ2031 to work with a boost circuit rather than buck? Using a separate boost module to step up voltage before implementing the BQ2031 would be less efficient if this is possible.

bq2031 cannot do the boost charger function. The buck boost charger, bq25700A, will be released in May. Sample is available now.

Thank you sir. I've tried searching for the bq25700A on the website but I can't seem to get any results. Where can I find documentation and request a sample for the bq25700A?
