Product details
Overview
BQ27425YZFT-G2A from Texas Instruments is a system-side single-cell Li-ion fuel gauge IC with integrated 10 mΩ sense resistor, Impedance Track™ algorithm, I²C interface (400 kHz), and on-chip LDO regulator (2.5 V). It resides on the host PCB, measures voltage, current, and temperature to report remaining capacity (mAh), state-of-charge (%), and battery health-used in smartphones and portable media devices.
For engineers reviewing the BQ27425YZFT-G2A datasheet, BQ27425YZFT-G2A pinout, BQ27425YZFT-G2A application, or BQ27425YZFT-G2A equivalent, key selection criteria include integrated sensing, low-power operating modes (SLEEP: 23 µA, HIBERNATE: 8 µA), battery insertion detection via BIN, and configurable GPOUT for SOC interrupt or battery-low warning.
Technical Context
The BQ27425YZFT-G2A implements Texas Instruments' patented Impedance Track™ algorithm to model cell impedance dynamically using real-time voltage, current, and temperature measurements. It integrates a 14–15-bit coulomb counter ADC (SRX input), 14–15-bit cell voltage/temperature ADC (BAT input), and internal temperature sensor with ±2 mV/°C gain.
Its power architecture includes a 2.5-V LDO (2.4–2.6 V output) powered from REGIN, supporting operation across 2.8–4.5 V input range. The device transitions autonomously between INITIALIZATION, NORMAL, SLEEP, HIBERNATE, and SHUTDOWN modes based on current thresholds and I/O events-including battery insertion detection via BIN pin and configurable wake-up triggers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fuel gauging applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ27426YZFT-G2A | Same package and pinout; adds HDQ interface alongside I²C; firmware version 2.06 vs 2.05 | Supports dual-interface systems (I²C + HDQ); required where legacy HDQ host exists | Choose if HDQ compatibility or newer firmware features (e.g., enhanced chem ID handling) are needed |

FAQ
What battery chemistries does the BQ27425YZFT-G2A support?
The BQ27425YZFT-G2A supports LiCoO₂ (CHEM_ID = 0x128) and LiMn₂O₄ (CHEM_ID = 0x312) single-cell batteries, as confirmed in the Device Comparison Table. It uses chemistry-specific OCV tables and aging models within the Impedance Track™ algorithm to maintain accuracy across both types without hardware changes.
Does the BQ27425YZFT-G2A require an external sense resistor?
No, the BQ27425YZFT-G2A includes an integrated 10 mΩ sense resistor between SRX and VSS. This eliminates the need for an external shunt, reduces PCB area, and avoids thermal drift errors associated with discrete resistors-enabling direct connection to the battery PACK– terminal.
How does the BQ27425YZFT-G2A handle battery insertion and removal detection?
The BQ27425YZFT-G2A uses the BIN pin for battery presence detection. When enabled via [BIE] bit, it detects insertion via logic high-to-low transition (or pullup-based detection) and automatically enters NORMAL mode to begin gauging-ensuring accurate state tracking starts only after valid battery connection.
What are the power modes of the BQ27425YZFT-G2A and their current consumption?
The BQ27425YZFT-G2A operates in five modes: NORMAL (118 µA), SLEEP (23 µA), HIBERNATE (8 µA), SHUTDOWN (1 µA), and INITIALIZATION (transient). Mode transitions are automatic or host-controlled via CE pin and register settings, enabling optimized power trade-offs for different usage phases.
Can the GPOUT pin on the BQ27425YZFT-G2A be used for both battery-low warning and SOC interrupts?
Yes-the GPOUT pin is configurable via the Operation Configuration register. When [BATLOWEN] = 1, it functions as a battery-low indicator synchronized to the [SOC1] flag; when cleared, it delivers 1-ms pulses at user-defined SOC intervals (e.g., every 1% or 10%) for host-triggered state updates.
