Product details

Single-cell Li-ion charger — 250 mA ceiling in a 6-bump package

The 6-XFBGA, DSBGA package (1.5 mm × 1.5 mm typical) fits space-constrained wearables, hearables, and IoT modules where board area is the tightest constraint. Charge current is set with a single external resistor — no I²C, no firmware. The 250 mA max means this part is sized for cells in the 100–300 mAh range, common in TWS earbuds or coin-cell Li-ion replacements.

Fault protections and junction temperature envelope

Three hard-wired protections are on-chip: over-temperature, over-voltage, and short-circuit. Over-temperature shuts down the charger before the 125°C junction limit is exceeded — the die temperature, not ambient, triggers the trip. Over-voltage protects the cell from a runaway supply; short-circuit protects the input from a battery-side fault. The operating junction range of 0°C to 125°C covers industrial-grade portable enclosures, but note the 0°C floor: Li-ion charging below freezing is blocked by the protection logic. If your application charges in a cold environment (e.g., outdoor medical patch), the charger will hold off until the die warms above threshold.

ROHS3 compliant. Confirm the 6-bump DSBGA footprint matches your board layout before committing — the 0.4 mm pitch bumps require a solder mask defined pad and a stencil aperture sized for the bump diameter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum charge current of the BQ25101YFPR?

250 mA, set by an external resistor. The charger operates in constant-current mode until the battery reaches 4.2 V, then tapers. For cells above 300 mAh, consider a higher-current part in the BQ2510x family.

Does the BQ25101YFPR include over-temperature protection?

Yes. Over-temperature, over-voltage, and short-circuit protection are all integrated. The thermal shutdown is triggered by the junction temperature, not ambient, so the die temperature ceiling of 125°C is the hard limit.

Is the BQ25101YFPR compatible with 4.2 V lithium cells?

Yes. The battery pack voltage is 4.2 V, matching standard Li-ion and Li-Polymer termination voltage. The charger terminates at 4.2 V with a programmable current taper.
