Product details
Overview
BQ24190RGET from Texas Instruments is a highly integrated I²C-controlled 4.5-A single-cell Li-ion/ Li-polymer switch-mode battery charger with Narrow VDC power path management and USB OTG boost capability. It delivers ±0.5% charge voltage regulation, 92% efficiency at 2 A, and supports 3.9–17 V input for tablet PC and smartphone applications.
For engineers reviewing the BQ24190RGET datasheet, BQ24190RGET pinout, BQ24190RGET application, or BQ24190RGET equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world system-level design meaning of key specs, and two confirmed alternative parts for USB/adapter charging designs requiring NVDC power path and 5-V/1.3-A OTG output.
Technical Context
The BQ24190RGET implements a synchronous buck converter with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs (RON_HSFET ≤ 35 mΩ, RON_LSFET ≤ 45 mΩ), enabling 4.5-A fast charge and 9-A battery discharge via a 12-mΩ BATFET. Its power path architecture maintains SYS ≥ 3.5 V even with depleted or absent battery, using autonomous supplement mode that discharges battery only when input current/voltage limits are reached.
It features dual NTC thermistor monitoring (TS1/TS2), programmable thermal regulation at 120°C, and D+/D− detection compliant with USB Battery Charging Spec 1.2. The 1.5-MHz switching frequency allows use of low-profile inductors, while I²C register control (address 0x6B) enables precise configuration of charge voltage (default 4.208 V), input current limit (1.5 A), and safety timers without host firmware intervention.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar single-cell Li-ion charging applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ24192RGET | Different USB detection method: uses PSEL pin instead of D+/D−; default VINDPM = 4.36 V; default charge current = 2.048 A. | Requires external PSEL logic for source identification; lower max charge current; suited for systems with dedicated USB PHY. | Select BQ24192RGET when host SoC provides PSEL signal and 2-A charge suffices; not drop-in compatible due to pin function differences (PSEL vs D+/D−). |
| BQ24195LRGET | Enhanced thermal performance: RθJA = 28.5°C/W (vs 32.2°C/W); added VBUS disconnect FET; supports higher ambient temperatures. | Better suited for thermally constrained enclosures; includes hardware VBUS disconnect for enhanced safety compliance. | Choose BQ24195LRGET for designs targeting extended lifetime in >60°C ambient or requiring UL/IEC 62368-1 VBUS isolation. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the BQ24190RGET can handle?
The BQ24190RGET supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 22 V on the VBUS pin, with recommended operating range from 3.9 V to 17 V. Its input over-voltage protection triggers at 17.4–18 V (rising) with 700-mV hysteresis, ensuring robust operation across USB, DC adapter, and automotive input sources. This specification is confirmed in Section 8.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings and Section 8.5 Electrical Characteristics of the official SLUSAW5B datasheet.
Does the BQ24190RGET support USB Battery Charging Specification 1.2?
Yes, the BQ24190RGET natively supports USB Battery Charging Specification 1.2 through its D+/D− detection circuitry, enabling automatic identification of standard downstream ports (SDP), charging downstream ports (CDP), and dedicated charging ports (DCP). This functionality is implemented without external components and is documented in Sections 1 and 7 of the SLUSAW5B datasheet, including D+ voltage source (0.5–0.7 V) and D– pulldown (14.25–24.8 kΩ) specifications.
What is the purpose of the ILIM pin on the BQ24190RGET?
The ILIM pin on the BQ24190RGET sets the hardware-defined maximum input current limit using a resistor to ground: IINMAX = (1 V / RILIM) × 530 Ω. It provides a fail-safe current cap (minimum 500 mA) independent of I²C register settings, ensuring safe operation if firmware fails or communication is lost. This analog current-limiting function is detailed in Section 7 Pin Functions and Table 8.5 of the SLUSAW5B datasheet.
Can the BQ24190RGET operate without a battery connected?
Yes, the BQ24190RGET supports true "instant-on" operation with no battery or deeply discharged battery via its Narrow VDC power path. When VBUS is present, it regulates SYS to 3.5–4.35 V directly from input, powering the system immediately. This behavior is enabled by the internal power path controller and is explicitly stated in Section 3 Description and Figure 1 Functional Block Diagram of the SLUSAW5B datasheet.
What thermal protection features does the BQ24190RGET include?
The BQ24190RGET includes programmable thermal regulation at 120°C (TJunction_REG) and thermal shutdown at 160°C (TSHUT) with 30°C hysteresis. It also features thermal shutdown deglitch timers (1 ms rising/falling) to prevent false triggering during transient spikes. These protections are specified in Section 8.5 Electrical Characteristics and are active across the full –40°C to 125°C junction temperature range per the SLUSAW5B datasheet.
