BQ24005: equivalent part for 1 cell

Part Number: BQ24005
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ24004, BQ24040

Hello,

The BQ24004/5/6 series support 2 series cells. is there an equivalent part for a 1-cell support?

Thank you,

Gaurav

  • Hello Gaurav

    The BQ2400X series are very old devices would a newer device such as the BQ24040 would in your application?

    What are your requirements, input voltage, charge currents and others?

  • Hi Bill,

    The charge current should be 1A or more. input is variable and can be adjusted accordingly (from a separate power supply). This charger needs to interface with a host controller and hence it clearly needs to indicate faults such as precharge timer fault, fast charge timer fault, temperature faults etc. The BQ2400X has a very clear indication of various faults on the STAT1 and STAT2 pins and is more fault indication friendly than the BQ24040. 

    Is there any linear charger with adjustable output through a feedback resistor network?

    Thank you,

    Gaurav

  • Hi Gaurav

    BQ2408X is family of devices with STAT1 / 2 pins and will provide more definition of the Charge State, see Table 3 of data sheet.

    All of the Linear regulators are fixed outputs, 4.2V is the most common, some higher voltages are available. 

    Adjustable output are available in some switching converters.
