Product details
Overview
BQ500414QRGZRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 qualified automotive wireless power transmitter manager for WPC v1.1–compliant Qi charging systems. It integrates digital demodulation, three-coil free-positioning control, FOD/PMOD metal detection, I²C host interface, and 12-V SEPIC front-end support. It operates across –40°C to 85°C in vehicles requiring robust, certified wireless charging for smartphones and accessories.
For engineers reviewing the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 datasheet, BQ500414QRGZRQ1 pinout, BQ500414QRGZRQ1 application, or BQ500414QRGZRQ1 equivalent, key selection factors include its triple-coil A6 Tx architecture, WPC v1.1 FOD compliance, programmable loss thresholds via external resistors, and integrated thermal shutdown via T_SENSE with 1.0-V trip point.
Technical Context
The BQ500414QRGZRQ1 implements a digital ping-based receiver detection sequence across three independent coil drive paths (COIL_1.1/1.2/1.3), each synchronized with analog COMM signal demodulation (COMM_A±/B±) for real-time Rx packet feedback. Its internal 12-bit ADC monitors V_SENSE, I_SENSE, LOSS_THR, LED_MODE, and T_SENSE to compute parasitic loss and enforce WPC v1.1 FOD limits.
It supports both active wake-up (via EN_PWR low) and passive wake-up (EN_PWR high + I²C SHUTDOWN disable), enabling integration with proximity sensors. The device uses fixed I²C slave address 0x14 (20 decimal), operates at 100–1000 kHz clock rates, and drives DPWM_A with externally generated dead time for half-bridge control.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 in a wireless charging system?
The BQ500414QRGZRQ1 serves as the core digital transmitter manager in automotive Qi-compliant wireless charging systems. It controls three independent A6-type coils, performs real-time foreign object detection (FOD) and parasitic metal object detection (PMOD), demodulates receiver communication signals, and interfaces with host controllers via I²C. Its design enables free-positioning charging across a 70-mm × 20-mm area while meeting WPC v1.1 and AEC-Q100 requirements.
How does the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 implement foreign object detection (FOD)?
The BQ500414QRGZRQ1 implements FOD by continuously calculating power loss using measured input voltage (V_SENSE), input current (I_SENSE), and reported receiver power (via COMM demodulation). Loss thresholds are set via external resistors on pins 13 (FOD) and 43 (LOSS_THR), enabling compliance with WPC v1.1's 400-mW minimum allowable loss margin. If unaccounted loss exceeds the programmed threshold, the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 halts power transfer and asserts fault indicators.
Can the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 operate without an external SEPIC converter?
Yes, the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 can operate without an external SEPIC converter. Its EN_PWR pin (18) supports both active wake-up (SEPIC enabled) and passive wake-up (SEPIC disabled) modes. When EN_PWR is held high, the device enters passive mode and waits for an I²C SHUTDOWN command to be cleared before initiating ping sequences-allowing direct 12-V battery connection or alternative front-end topologies. The "Without SEPIC" efficiency curve in the datasheet confirms this capability.
What is the role of the T_SENSE pin (pin 2) on the BQ500414QRGZRQ1?
The T_SENSE pin (pin 2) on the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 provides a hard thermal shutdown input with a fixed 1.0-V threshold. When voltage drops below 1.0 V-typically driven by an NTC thermistor voltage divider-the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 immediately disables power transfer and asserts fault status. If unused, T_SENSE must be pulled above 1.0 V (e.g., to V33A) to prevent spurious shutdown; leaving it floating causes erratic behavior.
Does the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 support multiple LED indication modes, and how are they configured?
Yes, the BQ500414QRGZRQ1 supports seven distinct LED indication modes via LED_A (pin 7), LED_B (pin 8), and LED_C (pin 9). Mode selection is resistor-programmed on LED_MODE (pin 44): values from 42.2 kΩ to 100 kΩ select patterns including steady-on, slow blink (0.625 Hz), fast blink (2.5 Hz), and combinations indicating power transfer, charge completion, standby, fault, or FOD warning-enabling intuitive user feedback without host MCU involvement.
