General Description

The bq2461x is highly integrated Li-ion or Li-polymer switch-mode battery charge controllers. The
bq2463x is highly integrated switch-mode battery charge controllers designed specifically to charge
Lithium Phosphate battery chemistries.
They offer a constant-frequency synchronous PWM controller with high accuracy charge current and
voltage regulation, adapter current regulation, termination, charge preconditioning, and charge status
monitoring,
The bq2461x/bq2463x charges the battery in three phases: preconditioning, constant current, and
constant voltage. Charge is terminated when the current reches a minimum user-selectable level. A
programmable charge timer provides a safety backup for charge termination. The bq2461x/bq2463x
automatically restarts the charge cycle if the battery voltage falls below an internal threshold, and enters a
low-quiescent current sleep mode when the input voltage falls below the battery voltage.
The dynamic power management (DPM) function modifies the charge current depending on system load
conditions, avoiding ac adapter overload.
High accuracy current sense amplifiers enable accurate measurement of the ac adapter current, allowing
monitoring of overall system power.
For details, see bq24610 and bq24617 (SLUS892), bq24616 (SLUSA49) and bq2463x (SLUS894) data
sheets.
