Do I need the USB data lines to use the BQ25606, or can i just apply 5V to the power input? Maybe I can use a short or some resistor divider across the datalines? I only need 0.5A max for my application? Thanks.

Hey Bill,
You can use 5V fine. In that case, just short the D+ and D- pin, and use the ILIM pin to limit the input current if desired.
