The BQ24810 evaluation module (EVM) is an evaluation system for the BQ24810 IC. The BQ24810 IC is a buck-only battery charge controller with hybrid power boost mode, battery-only boost, and processor hot monitoring capability. The input voltage range is between 4.5V and 24V, with a programmable output of 1–4 cells charge voltage and 128mA to 8.128A charge current.
Features
- Hybrid power boost mode to power up system from adapter and battery together
- Battery only boost mode to support larger system transients and extend battery runtime
- Peak power two-level input current limit to maximize the power from adapter and minimize battery discharge
- Supports charging 1- to 4-cell battery pack from 4.5V to 24V adapter
- High accuracy power and current monitoring for CPU throttling
- Automatic NMOS/bidirectional GaN power source selection from adapter or battery
- Programmable input current, charge voltage, charge and discharge current limit
- Switching frequency: 300kHz, 400kHz, 600kHz, and 800kHz
