The bq24170/172 is highly integrated stand-alone
Li-ion and Li-polymer switch-mode battery charger
with two integrated N-channel power MOSFETs. It

Internal Digital Soft Start
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 to allow
charge only in a preset temperature window. 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 bq24170/172 charges the battery in three
phases: precondictioning, constant current, and
constant voltage. The bq24170 charges one, two, or
three cells (selected by CELL pin), and the bq24172
is adjustable for up to three series Li+ cells.
