2.5 A charge current for single-cell Li-Ion packs
The BQ24167YFFR is a single-cell Li-Ion battery charger IC from Texas Instruments with a programmable constant-current charge profile and a maximum charge current of 2.5 A. The USB interface simplifies the input power path for portable designs that draw from a USB port or adapter.
Protection and temperature grade
Built-in fault protection covers over-temperature and short-circuit conditions — essential for safe Li-ion charging in systems where the battery pack is not user-removable.
Package and footprint
The small footprint suits space-constrained portable and wearable designs, but the BGA layout requires careful PCB fan-out and a controlled solder-paste stencil for reliable assembly.
