Bat,

Thank you so much for the recommendation, i came across the BQ35110. Actually it was the only part recommended for Lithium primaries non-rechargeable. I read CR123A batteries chemstries where Li-Mno2 so i went with BQ35110. I dont see this mentioned in the datasheet for the parts you recommended. What should i be looking for in the datasheet to verify if this cell chemistry is supported?

Hi Julio,

Yes, if it's a primary non rechargeable, please use the bq35100. The DS should list in the first page the supported chemistries. My suggestions were for rechargeable batteries.
