DESCRIPTION
–
The bq24171 is highly integrated stand-alone Li-ion
and Li-polymer switch-mode battery charger with two
integrated N-channel power MOSFETs. It offers a
constant-frequency synchronous PWM controller with
high accuracy regulation of input current, charge
current, and voltage. It closely monitors the battery
pack temperature and allows charge only in a JEITA
profile compatible window with lower charge rate at
low temperature and lower charge voltage at high
temperature. It also provides battery detection,
pre-conditioning, charge termination, and charge
status monitoring. The thermal regulation loop
reduces charge current to maintain the junction
temperature of 120°C during operation.

The bq24171 charges the battery in three phases:
preconditioning, constant current, and constant
voltage. It is adjustable for up to three series Li+
cells.

Input Over-Voltage Protection with
Programmable Threshold
Charge is terminated when the current reaches 10%
of the fast charge rate. A programmable charge timer
offers a safety back up. The bq24171 automatically

The bq24171 features Dynamic Power Management
(DPM) to reduce the charge current when the input
power limit is reached to avoid over-loading the
adapter. A highly-accurate current-sense amplifier
enables precise measurement of input current from
adapter to monitor overall system power.
