Product details
Overview
BQ51050BYFPR from Texas Instruments is a Qi v1.2-compliant wireless power receiver IC integrating synchronous rectification, battery charge control, and digital communication for Li-ion/Li-polymer charging. It delivers up to 1.5 A at 4.20 V regulated output, supports JEITA temperature monitoring via NTC, and achieves 93% peak AC-DC efficiency in portable battery-powered devices such as smartphones and headsets.
For engineers reviewing the BQ51050BYFPR datasheet, BQ51050BYFPR pinout, BQ51050BYFPR application, or BQ51050BYFPR equivalent, key selection criteria include its VQFN-20 package with exposed thermal pad, 15-V input overvoltage protection, adaptive VRECT regulation tracking battery voltage, and integrated FOD (Foreign Object Detection) support via the FOD pin - all critical for WPC-compliant receiver design and thermal-safe fast charging.
Technical Context
The BQ51050BYFPR implements a single-stage AC-DC conversion architecture combining a low-RDS(on) (100 mΩ typical) synchronous rectifier with an integrated LDO-based battery charger. Its digital controller executes Qi v1.2 packet-based communication via capacitive load modulation on COMM1/COMM2 pins and closed-loop power regulation using feedback from the transmitter.
It features dual-mode operation: voltage-regulation phase (VRECT = VBAT + 300 mV) during constant-current charging, transitioning to fixed 5.11-V regulation when battery current drops below IEndTrack; plus JEITA-compliant thermal management using the TS/CTRL pin with internal 2.2-V bias and programmable NTC thresholds (0°C, 10°C, 45°C, 60°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.20 V ±20 mV - precisely regulated Li-ion termination voltage per JEITA profile. |
| Max Charging Current | 1.5 A - set via ILIM resistor (KILIM = 314 A·Ω), enabling full-rate charging for 2000–3000 mAh batteries. |
| VRECT Regulation | 5.11 V (fixed) or track mode (VBAT + 300 mV) - dynamically optimizes rectifier efficiency across charge cycle. |
| Input Overvoltage Protection | 15 V threshold with 150-mV hysteresis - protects internal FETs during coil resonance overshoot. |
| AC-DC Efficiency | 93% peak - achieved via low-loss synchronous rectification and minimal dropout (190 mV @ 1 A). |
| Thermal Shutdown | 155°C with 20°C hysteresis - ensures safe operation under sustained high-power wireless transfer. |
| FOD Support | Dedicated FOD pin with analog input - enables compliance with WPC v1.2 foreign object detection requirements. |

Use Scenario: Implemented in mid-tier portable speaker to add Qi wireless charging alongside existing 12-V DC input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides priority-managed dual-input charging - uses EN2 pin to disable wireless path when wired adapter is present, preventing conflict and ensuring seamless source handover. Use Value: Eliminates need for separate charging ICs or complex power-path arbitration logic - simplifies BOM and layout while supporting both user-preferred charging methods. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar wireless power receiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| bq51051BYFPR | 4.35-V regulated output; identical pinout, package, and feature set except higher VOREG. | Targets higher-voltage Li-ion chemistries (e.g., LCO with 4.35-V termination); not drop-in for 4.20-V systems. | Select only if battery specification requires 4.35-V termination - otherwise incompatible due to overcharge risk. |
| bq51222YFPR | Single-chip Qi v1.2.2 receiver with integrated 2-MHz buck charger; supports up to 2 A, but uses different pinout and lacks JEITA NTC support. | Designed for higher-power applications (e.g., tablets); requires redesign of thermal sensing and communication layout. | Choose for >1.5-A needs or newer Qi spec compliance; avoid for drop-in replacement or JEITA-critical designs. |
Compared with BQ51050BYFPR, bq51051BYFPR offers identical functionality at 4.35 V for alternative battery chemistries, while bq51222YFPR provides higher current and updated protocol support at the cost of JEITA compatibility and board-level redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage tolerance for the BQ51050BYFPR?
The BQ51050BYFPR supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 20 V on AC1 and AC2 pins, with robust 15-V overvoltage protection (OVP) activated at 14.5–15.5 V. This tolerance accommodates transient spikes during resonant coil operation while protecting internal synchronous rectifier FETs - critical for reliable deployment in unregulated wireless power environments where coil Q-factor and alignment variations cause voltage overshoot.
How does the BQ51050BYFPR implement JEITA-compliant temperature monitoring?
The BQ51050BYFPR uses its TS/CTRL pin to interface with an external NTC thermistor (10 kΩ at 25°C, Beta = 3380), applying an internal 2.2-V bias and measuring voltage division to detect four temperature thresholds: 0°C, 10°C, 45°C, and 60°C. At 45°C, it reduces charge current by 50%; at 60°C, it halts charging entirely - fulfilling JEITA JIS-C 8714 requirements for Li-ion safety without external ADC or firmware.
Can the BQ51050BYFPR support both wireless and wired charging on the same device?
Yes, the BQ51050BYFPR supports dual-input charging via its AD and EN2 pins: AD accepts up to 15 V wired adapter input, while EN2 selects priority - low enables wired charging and disables wireless, high enables wireless only. When AD voltage is present and EN2 is low, the IC drives AD-EN low to control an external PFET, allowing seamless handover without software intervention or external arbitration logic.
What is the role of the COMM1 and COMM2 pins on the BQ51050BYFPR?
The COMM1 and COMM2 pins on the BQ51050BYFPR serve as open-drain modulators for Qi v1.2 communication, enabling bidirectional data exchange with the transmitter. They implement capacitive load modulation by switching internal FETs to vary reflected impedance on the AC1/AC2 lines - transmitting control packets (e.g., power control, fault reporting) without requiring separate communication coils or UART interfaces.
Does the BQ51050BYFPR require external MOSFETs for synchronous rectification?
No, the BQ51050BYFPR integrates all power MOSFETs required for synchronous rectification - including low-RDS(on) (100 mΩ typical) N-channel FETs for both high-side and low-side switching - within the IC. External components needed are only bootstrap capacitors (10 nF each on BOOT1/BOOT2), filter capacitors (4.7–22 µF on RECT), and optional clamp capacitors (0.47 µF on CLAMP1/CLAMP2), eliminating discrete rectifier design complexity.
