Is it possible to disable the use of TS1 and TS2 inputs (ie not connect them to thermistors/resistor network), as we are controlling the charger remotely that also monitors the battery temperature.

Hi,

Yes. Please visit https://e2e.ti.com/support/power-management/f/196/t/877725 for BQ2419X: Schematic Review and PCB Layout Design Tips and https://e2e.ti.com/support/power-management/f/196/t/875388 for BQ2419X/2429x FAQs. BQ24196 is similar to BQ24192.

Thanks,

Ning.
