Product details

Single-cell Li-Ion charger with 2.5 A ceiling

The device integrates over-temperature, over-voltage, and short-circuit fault protection, reducing the need for external supervisor ICs or discrete protection on the BOM.

Industrial temperature range and small footprint

The 49-DSBGA package measures 2.8x2.8 mm — a 0.4 mm pitch BGA that demands a well-planned fan-out on the PCB. The exposed thermal pad (not explicitly called out here but implied by the DSBGA construction) must be connected to a copper plane for heat spreading during high-current charging.

Frequently asked questions

What is the charge current of BQ24278YFFT?

The maximum charge current is 2.5 A, programmable via an external resistor. The actual charge current in a design depends on the input supply capability, thermal management on the 49-DSBGA package, and the battery cell's own charge-rate limit.

How does BQ24278YFFT compare to BQ24278?

The BQ24278YFFT is the Tape & Reel / Cut Tape variant of the base BQ24278 device. The silicon is identical — same charge current, same protection set, same package. The YFFT suffix simply denotes the shipping medium; there is no functional difference.
