Active I²C charger for 1-cell Li-Ion packs
The BQ24160RGER is a Texas Instruments I²C-controlled, single-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer battery charger in a 24-VQFN (4x4) package. It delivers a programmable constant charge current up to 2.5 A, with over-temperature and over-voltage fault protection built in.
2.5 A charge current and I²C programmability
The 2.5 A max charge current suits fast charging of a single 3.7 V Li-Ion or Li-Polymer cell. The I²C interface lets a host microcontroller set the charge current, termination voltage, and safety timers — no external resistors needed for current programming.
