Product details

3A single-cell charger with I²C programmability

The Texas Instruments BQ24296MRGET is a single-cell Lithium Ion/Polymer battery charger that delivers up to 3A charge current from a supply up to 6.2V. The charge current is constant and programmable via the I²C interface — no external resistor is needed to set the fast-charge rate, which simplifies the BOM and lets the host controller adjust the charging profile on the fly. The device integrates over-current, over-temperature, and over-voltage fault protection on-chip, so a separate supervisor IC is not required for the charger rail. This reduces board area and component count in space-constrained designs like portable instruments, IoT gateways, and handheld medical devices.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between BQ24296MRGET and BQ24296RGET?

The two share the same base product number BQ24296 and identical electrical specifications — single-cell Li-ion charger, 3A max, I²C interface, 24-VFQFN package. The suffix difference (MRGET vs RGET) typically indicates packaging or reel quantity variations. Pin-compatible and functionally identical; the choice comes down to the reel format your assembly house prefers.

Is BQ24296MRGET compatible with 2-cell batteries?

No. This charger is designed for a single-cell (1S) Lithium Ion/Polymer battery with a 4.2V termination voltage. It does not support 2-cell (2S) packs. For a 2-cell application, look at the BQ24297 or BQ25890 family which handles higher battery pack voltages.

Where can I find the BQ24296MRGET datasheet?

The datasheet for the BQ24296 family is available from Texas Instruments' website under the base product number BQ24296. It covers the full register map for the I²C interface, the thermal pad layout recommendation, and the application circuits for USB and adapter input configurations.
