1.1 Background
The bqTINY series are highly integrated Li-Ion and Li-Pol linear
charge-management devices targeted at space-limited portable applications.
In a small package, the bqTINY series offer integrated PowerFET and current
sensor, reverse blocking diode, high-accuracy current and voltage regulation,
charge status, and charge termination.
The bqTINY charges the battery in three phases: conditioning, constant
current, and constant voltage. Charge terminates on the basis of minimum
current. An internal charge-timer provides backup safety for charge
termination. The bqTINY automatically restarts the charge if the battery
voltage falls below an internal threshold and automatically enters sleep mode
when V
In addition to the standard features, different versions of the bqTINY offer a
multitude of additional features. These features include temperature-sensing
input for detecting hot or cold battery packs, power good (PG) output indicating
the presence of the ac adapter, a TTL-level charge enable input (CE) to disable
or enable the charge process, and a TTL-level timer and termination enable
(TTE) input to disable or enable the fast-charge timer and charge termination.

Power dissipation
† This input voltage maximum is a function of the maximum allowable power dissipation on the IC. The current level is pro-
grammed for 0.7 A. If the programmed charge is changed, then the maximum input voltage must be adjusted.
