Product details

It integrates over-temperature and over-voltage fault protection, reducing external component count.

2.5 A charge current and I²C control

The 2.5 A maximum charge current supports fast charging of single-cell Li-Ion packs with a nominal voltage of 3.7 V. The I²C interface allows the host microcontroller to set charge current, termination threshold, and status monitoring without additional GPIOs. Fault protection covers over-temperature and over-voltage conditions, safeguarding the battery and charger during abnormal operation. The constant-current / constant-voltage charging profile is standard for Li-Ion/Polymer chemistry.

49-DSBGA footprint and layout considerations

The 49-DSBGA package measures 2.8 x 2.8 mm.

Frequently asked questions

Is the BQ24161YFFT compatible with a 3.7 V single-cell LiPo battery?

Yes. The device is designed for single-cell Li-Ion/Polymer batteries with a nominal pack voltage of 3.7 V and supports a programmable charge current up to 2.5 A.

Does the BQ24161 support USB input?

The device accepts up to 10 V input, so standard USB 5 V is within range. The I²C interface can be used to configure input current limits for USB enumeration (e.g., 100 mA / 500 mA) if the host controller manages the negotiation.
