Product details

Multi-chemistry charger controller in 8-TSSOP

The Texas Instruments BQ24401PWG4 is a multi-chemistry battery charger controller designed for charging a range of battery types — NiCd, NiMH, Li-Ion, and lead-acid — without requiring a separate chemistry-specific IC. It integrates a programmable timer for charge termination, making it suitable for standalone charger designs in consumer and industrial equipment where the battery chemistry may vary across product variants.

The device operates from a maximum supply voltage of 6V, which sets the input rail requirement for the charger circuit — a regulated 5V rail or a 6V wall adapter is typical.

The 8-TSSOP footprint is shared across the BQ24401 family, so a board layout for one member accepts the others.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between BQ24401PWG4 and BQ24401PW?

The BQ24401PWG4 is the Tube-shipped variant of the BQ24401PW. The PW suffix indicates the 8-TSSOP package; the G4 suffix denotes the Tube shipping medium. The die and electrical specifications are identical — the only difference is the shipping format.
