BQ25792: Recommendations for USB Charging + Data Applications

Part Number: BQ25792

Would you happen to have any recommendations for situations where battery charging and application data is needed from the same port?

I'm considering

connecting the usb port data lines to a micro controller

leaving the BQ25792 data pins floating

using ILIM_HIZ to clamp current to 500mA

running the current capability detection on the micro controller (possible more limited then the BQ25792 capabilities)

Setting IINDPM to the detected limit

then setting EN_EXTILIM to 0 to bypass the ILIM_HIZ limit.

Alternatively, I've considered using a USB Mux to connect the data lines to the BQ25792, running detection on the BQ25792 and then swapping the lines over to the microcontroller.

What would you recommend? Am I missing any options or limitations?

Thanks for your help
