Product details
Overview
BQ24105RHLRG4 from Texas Instruments is a synchronous switched-mode Li-ion/Li-polymer and LiFePO₄ battery charge-management IC with integrated power FETs, 1.1-MHz fixed-frequency PWM controller, 2-A max charge current, ±0.5% voltage regulation accuracy, and programmable termination via ISET2. It operates in conditioning, constant-current, and constant-voltage phases for portable media players and industrial handheld equipment.
For engineers reviewing the BQ24105RHLRG4 datasheet, BQ24105RHLRG4 pinout, BQ24105RHLRG4 application, or BQ24105RHLRG4 equivalent, key selection considerations include externally programmable 2.1–15.5-V output voltage range, high-side battery current sensing, thermal shutdown, automatic sleep mode, and compatibility with LiFePO₄ chemistry - all in a thermally enhanced 20-pin VQFN package.
Technical Context
The BQ24105RHLRG4 implements a synchronous buck topology with integrated P- and N-channel MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 400 mΩ / 130 mΩ at 7 V), enabling up to 2-A continuous charge current. Its 1.1-MHz switching frequency supports compact external components while maintaining >90% efficiency across 4.35–16-V input range.
Charge management uses three-phase sequencing: precharge (15–200 mA, set by ISET2), fast charge (150–2000 mA, set by ISET1), and constant-voltage regulation (±0.5% accuracy). Termination is triggered when charge current falls below user-programmable threshold (15–200 mA), backed by a programmable safety timer (25–572 min).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Max Charge Current | 2 A - supports rapid charging of single- to three-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, or LiFePO₄ packs |
| Output Voltage Range | 2.1–15.5 V - externally programmable via FB pin, enabling flexible battery chemistries including LiFePO₄ |
| Voltage Regulation Accuracy | ±0.5% - ensures precise cell voltage control during CV phase, critical for cycle life and safety |
| Switching Frequency | 1.1 MHz - allows use of small 1–4.7-μH inductors and low-ESR ceramic output capacitors (4.7–47 μF) |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.35–16 V - compatible with 5-V USB adapters, 9-V wall adapters, and 12-V industrial supplies |
| Thermal Protection | Junction shutdown at 125°C - prevents thermal runaway during high-power operation or poor PCB heatsinking |

FAQ
What battery chemistries does the BQ24105RHLRG4 support?
The BQ24105RHLRG4 supports Li-ion, Li-polymer, and LiFePO₄ battery chemistries. Its externally programmable output voltage range (2.1–15.5 V via FB pin) enables precise matching to LiFePO₄ cell voltages (e.g., 3.2 V/cell), unlike fixed-output variants such as BQ24103A. The BQ24105RHLRG4 datasheet explicitly confirms LiFePO₄ compatibility in its Features and Applications sections.
How is charge current programmed on the BQ24105RHLRG4?
Charge current on the BQ24105RHLRG4 is set using two independent resistor-to-ground networks: ISET1 (Pin 8) configures fast-charge current (150–2000 mA, K = 1000 V/A), and ISET2 (Pin 9) sets precharge and termination current (15–200 mA, same gain). The BQ24105RHLRG4 uses high-side current sensing via the SNS pin and an external sense resistor (RSNS) to regulate these values with ±10% accuracy, excluding resistor tolerance effects.
Does the BQ24105RHLRG4 require external MOSFETs?
No, the BQ24105RHLRG4 integrates synchronous P-channel and N-channel power FETs - eliminating the need for external MOSFETs, gate drivers, or associated discrete components. Its internal FETs deliver up to 2-A continuous charge current with RDS(on) of 400 mΩ (P-FET) and 130 mΩ (N-FET) at 7 V, as specified in the BQ24105RHLRG4 Electrical Characteristics table.
What is the purpose of the TTC pin on the BQ24105RHLRG4?
On the BQ24105RHLRG4, the TTC (Timer and Termination Control) pin accepts an external capacitor (0.01–0.22 μF) to program a safety backup charge timer ranging from 25 to 572 minutes. When enabled, this timer forces charge termination if the primary current-based termination condition is not met - preventing overcharge in fault conditions. The BQ24105RHLRG4 datasheet specifies KTTC = 2.6 min/nF for timing calculation.
How does the BQ24105RHLRG4 handle thermal protection?
The BQ24105RHLRG4 implements dual-layer thermal protection: junction-level shutdown at 125°C (absolute maximum) and programmable temperature monitoring via the TS pin. The TS input compares against VTSB-derived thresholds (73.5% for cold, 34.4% for hot), with 20–40 ms deglitching to reject noise. This behavior is documented in the BQ24105RHLRG4 Electrical Characteristics table under "TEMPERATURE COMPARATOR" parameters.
