Product details

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.

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.

Frequently asked questions

Does BQ24160RGER work with 3.7V LiPo batteries?

Yes. The BQ24160RGER is designed for single-cell Li-Ion and Li-Polymer batteries with a nominal pack voltage of 3.7 V.

Is BQ24160RGER a direct replacement for BQ24160?

The base product number is BQ24160. The BQ24160RGER variant shares the same die and I²C interface; the suffix indicates the 24-VQFN package and tape-and-reel packaging. It is a functional replacement for the BQ24160 in the same footprint.
