Product details
Overview
BQ2057CDGKR from Texas Instruments is a linear lithium-ion battery charge management IC for single-cell 4.2 V Li-ion/Li-pol packs. It integrates voltage regulation (±1% accuracy), current regulation (via external sense resistor), AutoComp™ dynamic impedance compensation, temperature-monitored charge qualification, and precharge conditioning. It drives external PNP or P-channel MOSFET pass devices in portable medical equipment and telematics control units.
For engineers reviewing the BQ2057CDGKR datasheet, BQ2057CDGKR pinout, BQ2057CDGKR application, or BQ2057CDGKR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated MSOP-8 pin functions, confirmed alternative parts with functional differences, and supply support for volume production in safety-critical embedded systems.
Technical Context
The BQ2057CDGKR implements a three-phase linear charging algorithm: preconditioning (10% of regulation current at ≤3.1 V), constant-current regulation (set by external sense resistor), and constant-voltage regulation (4.20 V ±1% over −20°C to 70°C). It uses high- or low-side current sensing without additional components and monitors battery temperature via an external thermistor divider referenced to VCC.
Its AutoComp™ feature dynamically adjusts voltage regulation based on sensed charge current to reduce total charge time while maintaining safe cell voltage limits. The STAT pin provides three-state status output (high = charging, low = done, high-impedance = fault/sleep), and the CC pin operates as a source-follower gate driver for external pass transistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Charge Regulation Voltage | 4.20 V ±1% - precise termination threshold for single-cell Li-ion, minimizing overcharge risk and extending cycle life |
| Current Regulation Threshold | 105 mV (typ.) - sets full-charge current via external sense resistor; supports both high- and low-side configurations |
| Precharge Threshold | 3.10 V (typ.) - triggers safe low-current conditioning for deeply discharged cells before main charge phase |
| Charge Termination Current | −14 mV (typ.) - detects taper current at SNS pin to end CV phase and prevent thermal stress |
| AutoComp™ Gain | 2.2 V/V (typ.) - scales voltage regulation offset proportionally to charge current, reducing total charge time |
| Operating Temperature Range | −20°C to 70°C - validated performance envelope for industrial and automotive-adjacent portable electronics |

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin MSOP (DGK), 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body size, exposed pad optional per TI design guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BAT | Voltage sense input | Direct connection to battery positive terminal for accurate regulation feedback; high-impedance input minimizes loading |

Applications
| Emergency Call Systems | Telematics Control Unit |
|---|---|

| Portable Medical Equipment | EPOS Card Reader |
Use Scenario: Handheld diagnostic device with regulatory-mandated battery safety monitoring and predictable charge completion timing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Safety-critical charge supervisor enforcing temperature window (VTS1/VTS2) compliance and terminating charge at precise ITERM threshold.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Cost-optimized linear charger delivering consistent 4.2 V regulation and automatic recharge when battery voltage falls to VO(REG)−100 mV. Use Value: Extends usable battery cycles by avoiding repeated shallow discharges-recharge only initiates after ≥100 mV voltage sag post-full-charge. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear lithium-ion charge management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ2057CTS | Same 4.2 V regulation, TSSOP-8 package (3.0 mm × 4.4 mm); different pinout vs. DGK; RθJA = 157.1°C/W vs. 121.9°C/W | Higher thermal resistance requires more PCB copper area for same power dissipation; suitable where board space allows larger footprint | Select BQ2057CTS only if layout constraints favor TSSOP and thermal margin permits higher junction temperature rise |
| MCP73831T-2DCI/OT | Single-cell 4.2 V linear charger; fixed 500 mA current; no AutoComp™; no temperature sense input; SOT-23-5 package | Lacks temperature qualification, programmable current, and dynamic compensation-intended for cost-sensitive, non-safety-critical consumer accessories | Choose MCP73831T-2DCI/OT only for ultra-low-cost, low-power (<500 mA), temperature-insensitive applications where BQ2057CDGKR features are unnecessary |
Compared with BQ2057CTS and MCP73831T-2DCI/OT, the BQ2057CDGKR uniquely combines MSOP-8 compactness, AutoComp™-enabled faster charging, and full thermistor-based safety qualification-making it the only option among the three qualified for portable medical and automotive-adjacent telematics use cases.

FAQ
What is the exact charge regulation voltage of the BQ2057CDGKR?
The BQ2057CDGKR has a nominal charge regulation voltage of 4.20 V, with a tolerance of ±1% over the full operating temperature range (−20°C to 70°C) and supply voltage range (4.5 V to 15 V). This value is factory-trimmed and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the SLUS025G datasheet as 4.158 V (min), 4.20 V (typ), and 4.242 V (max).
Does the BQ2057CDGKR support both high-side and low-side current sensing?
Yes, the BQ2057CDGKR supports both high-side and low-side current sensing configurations without additional components. The SNS pin accepts the voltage drop across the external sense resistor placed either between VCC and SNS (high-side) or between VSS and SNS (low-side), with distinct regulation thresholds specified for each configuration in the datasheet.
What is the function of the COMP pin on the BQ2057CDGKR?
On the BQ2057CDGKR, the COMP pin is the AutoComp™ charge-rate compensation input. It accepts a feedback signal that dynamically adjusts the voltage regulation setpoint in proportion to charge current, reducing total charge time while maintaining safe cell voltage limits. Its gain is 2.2 V/V (typical), as confirmed in Section 8.5 of the SLUS025G datasheet.
How does the BQ2057CDGKR handle deeply discharged batteries?
The BQ2057CDGKR handles deeply discharged batteries by initiating a precharge (conditioning) phase when the BAT voltage falls below 3.10 V (typical). During this phase, it delivers approximately 10% of the programmed regulation current to safely raise the cell voltage before entering constant-current charging-minimizing heat dissipation in the external pass element.
What package type is used by the BQ2057CDGKR?
The BQ2057CDGKR uses the 8-pin MSOP (DGK) package with a 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body size and thermal characteristics including RθJA = 121.9°C/W. This package is explicitly listed in the Device Comparison Table and Pin Configuration section of the SLUS025G datasheet for the BQ2057C variant.
