BQ25120: Help Regarding Alternate part

Part Number: BQ25120
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS62740, BQ24232,

 I am seeking for a help regarding battery charging ic. right now i am using bq25120. but its package do not allow me to work well in layout as far as DRC Errors are concerned. so i want to know is there any alternate part for this ic that can work the same as bq25120?  Thanks in advance.

  • Hello Mohak,
    What particular aspect of the BQ25120 is causing DRC errors? What are your design requirements with regards to battery charge voltage, charge current, output voltage and output current?
  • Mohak,

    What PCB software are you using? If you want to bypass the DRC, we can help you on that with Altium.

    If you are running into limitations with the board vendor, you could possibly take a look at the BQ24232 along with a standalone DC-DC converter such as TPS62740.

    Note that BQ25120A is a charger with I2C and there might be limited functionality with discrete solutions. Let us know what your requirements are.
