Texas Instruments bq25157 1-Cell Linear Battery Charger

Texas Instruments bq25157 1-Cell Linear Battery Charger is a highly integrated battery charge management IC that integrates the most common functions for wearable, portable, and small medical devices. These functions include a charger, a regulated output voltage rail for system power, ADC for battery and system monitoring, an LDO, and a push-button controller. The bq25157 has the Input Supply Over Voltage Threshold (VOVP) threshold set to 6.2V.

The Texas Instruments bq25157 IC integrates a linear charger with Power Path that enables quick and accurate charging for small batteries while providing a regulated voltage to the system. The regulated system voltage (PMID) output may be configured through I2C based on the recommended operating condition of downstream IC’s and system loads for optimal system operation. The device supports charge current up to 500mA and supports termination current down to 0.5mA for maximum charge. The battery is charged using a standard Li-Ion charge profile with three phases: pre-charge, constant current, and constant voltage regulation.
