Product details
Overview
BQ51020YFPT from Texas Instruments is a WPC v1.1–compliant single-chip wireless power receiver IC for 5-W inductive charging systems. It integrates synchronous rectification, post-regulation LDO, digital communication, foreign object detection (FOD), and dynamic rectifier control - delivering up to 1.0 A output at adjustable 4.5–8 V into smartphones and power banks.
For engineers reviewing the BQ51020YFPT datasheet, BQ51020YFPT pinout, BQ51020YFPT application, or BQ51020YFPT equivalent, key selection criteria include its standalone operation (no I²C required), 42-pin DSBGA package (3.60 × 2.89 mm²), 79% system efficiency at 5 W, hardware current limit via ILIM pin, and integrated clamp/COMM drivers for WPC-compliant load modulation.
Technical Context
The BQ51020YFPT implements a fully autonomous WPC v1.1 receiver stack: it performs bi-phase encoded 2-kb/s communication via open-drain COMM1/COMM2 pins, executes dynamic rectifier control to maintain VRECT headroom across load transients, and regulates output using an internal LDO with VO_REG feedback setpoint of 0.5013 V (typ).
Its analog control architecture includes hardware-based overcurrent protection (ILIM pin threshold at 1.2 V), thermal shutdown at 155°C with 20°C hysteresis, undervoltage lockout at 2.9 V (typ), and input overvoltage protection at 15.1 V (typ) - all without firmware or external microcontroller dependency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| Max Output Current | 1.0 A - supports fast-charging loads such as USB-powered devices and Li-ion battery chargers |
| Output Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 8 V - adjustable via external resistor divider on VO_REG pin, enabling optimization for varied battery chemistries |
| System Efficiency | 79% at 5 W - achieved via fully synchronous rectifier (96% efficient) and 97% efficient post-regulator LDO |
| Package | DSBGA-42 (3.60 × 2.89 mm²) - ultra-low-profile solution for space-constrained mobile receivers |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 49.7°C/W - validated on JEDEC high-K board, supporting continuous 1-A operation with standard PCB layout |
| Communication Interface | Standalone mode - no I²C required; uses dedicated COMM1/COMM2 pins for WPC packet transmission |
Pinout & Package
Package: 42-pin DSBGA (YFP), body size 3.60 × 2.89 mm², 0.4-mm pitch, bottom-side solder balls.

| VO_REG | Output voltage feedback reference | Input pin for resistor divider; internal 0.5013-V reference sets VOUT = 0.5013 × (1 + R6/R7) |
| TS/CTRL | Temperature sense / EPT control | Pull-high to signal charge-complete (EPT); pull-low to signal overtemperature shutdown - direct interface to TX |
| PD_DET, WPG | Status outputs | Open-drain signals: PD_DET asserts when receiver is on TX pad; WPG asserts during active power transfer |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ51020YFPT in a wireless charging system?
The BQ51020YFPT serves as a complete WPC v1.1–compliant wireless power receiver IC. It performs AC-to-DC conversion via synchronous rectification, regulates output voltage using an internal LDO, executes bidirectional communication with the transmitter via COMM1/COMM2 pins, and implements safety features including foreign object detection and thermal shutdown - all within a single 42-pin DSBGA package. Its standalone architecture eliminates the need for external microcontrollers or protocol stacks.
Does the BQ51020YFPT require an external microcontroller to operate?
No, the BQ51020YFPT operates autonomously without any external microcontroller. It embeds the full WPC v1.1 communication stack, dynamic rectifier control algorithm, and analog regulation loops - enabling plug-and-play integration into wireless charging receivers. Unlike the bq51021YFPT variant, BQ51020YFPT uses EN1/EN2 as ground pins and relies solely on hardware-configured pins (ILIM, VO_REG, TS/CTRL) for setup.
How is output voltage programmed on the BQ51020YFPT?
Output voltage on the BQ51020YFPT is set by an external resistor divider connected between OUT and VO_REG pins. The internal reference is 0.5013 V (typ), so VOUT = 0.5013 × (1 + R6/R7). For example, to achieve 5.0 V output, select R6 = 90 kΩ and R7 = 10 kΩ. This analog programming method ensures deterministic behavior without firmware dependencies - a key differentiator from I²C-configurable variants like bq51021YFPT.
What is the role of the ILIM pin on the BQ51020YFPT?
The ILIM pin on the BQ51020YFPT provides hardware-based overcurrent protection by setting the maximum output current limit. When the voltage at ILIM reaches 1.2 V, the device latches off output current. The required resistance is calculated as RILIM = KILIM / IILIM, where KILIM = 842 A·Ω (typ). For a 1.0-A limit, RILIM = 842 Ω - typically implemented with R1 + RFOD. This analog current limiting operates independently of communication or software, enhancing system safety.
Can the BQ51020YFPT coexist with wired adapter power in the same device?
Yes, the BQ51020YFPT supports adapter enable functionality via AD and AD-EN pins. When adapter voltage exceeds 3.6 V (typ), the device disables wireless power transfer, asserts WPG low, and signals end-of-charge (EPT) to the transmitter. It then enables a back-to-back PMOS mux (external) between AD and OUT to route wired power. This allows seamless transition between wireless and wired input without external arbitration logic - a feature confirmed in the BQ51020YFPT datasheet Section 8.3.5.
