That 750 mA ceiling sets the charging speed for a typical 1000–1500 mAh cell — expect a full charge in roughly two hours, assuming the input supply can deliver the current without droop. The charge current is constant and programmable via an external resistor (the ISET pin), so you can dial it down for smaller cells or lower thermal budgets. No I²C or SMBus interface here — it is a straightforward analog set-and-forget part, which keeps the BOM simple and the firmware overhead near zero. ## Fault protection you can count on in the field Three built-in fault protections — over-temperature, over-voltage, and short-circuit — mean the charger handles the common failure modes without external supervisory ICs. Over-temperature shutdown is particularly useful in a portable device where the charger sits near the battery or a warm processor; the die temp is monitored internally, and the charger halts until it cools. If your design lives in a freezer or a hot engine bay, the 0°C lower limit is a constraint — this part is not rated for -40°C operation. ## 10-VSON package — layout and rework notes Surface-mount only; no through-hole variant. The small footprint (3x3 mm) saves board space but means rework requires a hot-air station or a reflow oven — not a soldering iron swap in the field. If you need field-replaceability, consider a socketed or larger-package alternative. ## Active production — sourcing reality Sourced through independent distribution against an RFQ.","metaTitle":"BQ24088DRCR Li-Ion Charger IC, 750 mA Max, 10-VSON","metaDescription":"TI BQ24088DRCR single-cell Li-Ion/Polymer charger, 750 mA max charge current, 10-VSON (3x3) package.

The BQ24088DRCR is designed specifically for single-cell lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries, with a battery pack voltage of 4.2V and a programmable charge current up to 750 mA. It includes over-voltage, over-temperature, and short-circuit protection tailored for single-cell applications."},{"question":"What is the maximum charge current for BQ24088DRCR?","answer":"The maximum charge current is 750 mA, programmable via an external resistor. The charge current is constant during the bulk-charge phase and then tapers as the battery approaches 4.2V."},{"question":"How does BQ24088DRCR compare to BQ24079?","answer":"Both are single-cell Li-Ion linear chargers from TI, but the BQ24079 adds an integrated power-path management (a battery FET and system load switch) that allows the system to run from the input supply even with a deeply discharged battery. The BQ24088DRCR omits power-path — it is a simpler, lower-cost charger for designs where the system can be powered directly from the battery during charging. The package and pin count differ; verify compatibility with your layout before substituting."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/BQ24088DRCR","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/BQ24088DRCR when reusing this data.
