The power path management feature allows the bq24272 to power the system from a high efficiency DC to DC
converter while simultaneously and independently charging the battery. The charger monitors the battery current
at all times and reduces the charge current when the system load requires current above the input current limit.
This allows for proper charge termination and timer operation. The system voltage is regulated to the battery
voltage but will not drop below 3.5V. This minimum system voltage support enables the system to run with a
defective or absent battery pack and enables instant system turn-on even with a totally discharged battery or no
battery. The power-path management architecture also permits the battery to supplement the system current
requirements when the adapter cannot deliver the peak system currents. This enables the use of a smaller
adapter.
The battery is charged in three phases: conditioning, constant current and constant voltage. In all charge phases,
an internal control loop monitors the IC junction temperature and reduces the charge current if the internal
temperature threshold is exceeded. Additionally, the bq24272 offers a voltage-based battery pack thermistor
monitoring input (TS) that monitors battery temperature for safe charging.

SLUSB09 – JUNE 2012
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The bq24272 is a highly integrated single cell Li-Ion battery charger and system power path management
devices targeted for space-limited, portable applications with high capacity batteries. The single-input, single cell
charger operates from a dedicated power source (i.e. wall adapter or wireless power input).
The power path management feature allows the bq24272 to power the system from a high efficiency DC to DC
converter while simultaneously and independently charging the battery. The charger monitors the battery current
at all times and reduces the charge current when the system load requires current above the input current limit.
This allows for proper charge termination and enables the system to run with a defective or absent battery pack.
Additionally, this enables instant system turn-on even with a totally discharged battery or no battery. The powerpath management architecture also permits the battery to supplement the system current requirements when the
adapter cannot deliver the peak system currents. This enables the use of a smaller adapter. The charge
parameters are programmable using the I2C interface.
The battery is charged in three phases: conditioning, constant current and constant voltage. In all charge phases,
an internal control loop monitors the IC junction temperature and reduces the charge current if the internal
temperature threshold is exceeded.
Charge Mode Operation
Charge Profile
The internal battery MOSFET is used to charge the battery. When the battery is above the MINSYS voltage, the
internal FET is on to maximize efficiency and the PWM converter regulates the charge current into the battery.
When battery is less than MINSYS, the SYS is regulated to VSYS(REG) and battery is charged using the battery
FET to regulate the charge current. There are 5 loops that influence the charge current:
• Constant current loop (CC)
• Constant voltage loop (CV)
• Thermal-regulation loop
• Minimum system-voltage loop (MINSYS)
• Input-voltage dynamic power-management loop (VIN-DPM)
During the charging process, all five loops are enabled and the one that is dominant takes control. The bq24272
supports a precision Li-Ion or Li-Polymer charging system for single-cell applications. The Dynamic Power Path
Management (DPPM) feature regulates the system voltage to a minimum of VMINSYS, so that startup is enabled
even for a missing or deeply discharged battery. Figure 2 shows a typical charge profile including the minimum
system output voltage feature.

Figure 2. Typical Charging Profile for bq24272
PWM Controller in Charge Mode
The bq24272 provides an integrated, fixed-frequency 1.5MHz voltage-mode controller to power the system and
supply the charge current. The voltage loop is internally compensated and provides enough phase margin for
stable operation, allowing the use of small ceramic capacitors with very low ESR. The input scheme for the
bq24272 prevents battery discharge when the supply voltages are lower than VBAT. The high-side N-MOSFET
(Q1) switches to control the power delivered to the output. The DRV LDO provides a supply for the gate drive for
the low side MOSFET, while a bootstrap circuit (BST) with an external bootstrap capacitor is used to boost up
the gate drive voltage for Q1.
The input is protected by a cycle-by-cycle current limit that is sensed through the internal sense MOSFETs for
Q1. The threshold for the current limit is set to a nominal 5-A peak current. The input also utilizes an input
current limit that limits the current from the power source.
Battery Charging Process
When the battery is deeply discharged or shorted (VBAT VSYS(REG), the battery FET is turned on and the SYS output is
connected to BAT. If the SYS voltage falls to VSYS(REG), it is regulated to that point to maintain the system output
even with a deeply discharged or absent battery. In this mode, the SYS output voltage is regulated by the buck
converter and the battery FET linearly regulates the charge current into the battery. The current from the supply
is shared between charging the battery and powering the system load at SYS. The dynamic power path

management (DPPM) circuitry of the bq24272 monitors the current limits continuously and if the SYS voltage
falls to the VMINSYS voltage, it adjusts charge current to maintain the minimum system voltage and supply the load
on SYS. If the charge current is reduced to zero and the load increases further, the bq24272 enters battery
supplement mode. During supplement mode, the battery FET is turned on and the battery supplements the
system load.

Figure 3. Example DPPM Response (VSupply=5V, VBAT = 3.1V, 1.5A Input current limit)
VBAT(REG) should never be programmed less than VBAT. If the battery is ever 5% above the regulation threshold,
the battery OVP circuit shuts the PWM converter off and the battery FET is turned on to discharge the battery to
safe operating levels. Battery OVP errors are shown in the I2C status registers.
Battery Only Connected
When a battery voltage > VBATUVLO is connected with no input source, the battery FET is turned on similar to
supplement mode. In this mode, the current is not regulated; however, there is a short circuit current limit. If the
short circuit limit is reached, the battery FET is turned off for the deglitch time. After the deglitch time, the battery
FET is turned on to test and see if the short has been removed. If it has not, the FET turns off and the process
repeats until the short is removed. This process is to protect the internal FET from over current. If an external
FET is used for discharge, the body diode prevents the load on SYS from being disconnected from the battery. If
the battery voltage is less than VBATUVLO, the battery FET (Q3) remains off and BAT is high-impedance. This
prevents further discharging deeply discharged batteries.
Battery Discharge FET (BGATE)
The bq24272 contains a MOSFET driver to drive an external discharge FET between the battery and the system
output. This external FET provides a low impedance path when supplying the system from the battery. Connect
BGATE to the gate of the external discharge MOSFET. BGATE is on under the following conditions:
1. No input supply connected.
2. HZ_MODE = 1
3. CD pin connected high

DEFAULT Mode
DEFAULT mode is used when I2C communication is not available. DEFAULT mode is entered in the following
situations:
1. When the charger is enabled and VBAT VBAT+ VSLP, the STATx and FAULT_x
bits are cleared and the device initiates a new charge cycle.
Input Voltage Based DPM
During normal charging process, if the input power source is not able to support the programmed or default
charging current, the supply voltage will decease. Once the supply drops to VIN_DPM (default 4.2V), the input
current limit is reduced down to prevent further supply droop. When the IC enters this mode, the charge current
is lower than the set value and the DPM_STATUS bit is set (Bit 5 in Register 05H). This feature ensures IC
compatibility with adapters with different current capabilities without a hardware change. Figure 7 shows the VINDPM behavior to a current limited source. In this figure the input source has a 750mA current limit and the
charging is set to 750mA. The SYS load is then increased to 1.2A.

Bad Source Detection
When a source is connected to IN, the bq24272 runs a Bad Source Detection procedure to determine if the
source is strong enough to provide some current to charge the battery. A current sink is turned on (75mA) for
32ms. If the source is valid after the 32ms (VBADSOURCE < VIN < VOVP), the buck converter starts up and normal
operation continues. If the supply voltage falls below VBAD_SOURCE during the detection, the current sink shuts off
for 2s and then retries, a single 128μs pulse is sent on the STAT and INT outputs and the STATx and FAULT_x
bits of the status registers and the battery/supply status registers are updated in the I2C. The detection circuits
retries continuously until either a new source is connected to the other input or a valid source is detected after
the detection time. If during normal operation the source falls to VBAD_SOURCE, the bq24272 turns off the PWM
converter, turns the battery FET and BGATE on, sends a single 128μs pulse is sent on the STAT and INT
outputs and the STATx and FAULT_x bits of the status registers and the battery/supply status registers are
updated in the I2C. Once a good source is detected, the STATx and FAULT_x bits are cleared and the device
returns to normal operation.
Input Over-Voltage Protection
The bq24272 provides over-voltage protection on the input that protects downstream circuitry. The built-in input
over-voltage protection to protect the device and other components against damage from overvoltage on the
input supply (Voltage from VIN to PGND). During normal operation, if VIN > VOVP, the bq24272 turns off the PWM
converter, turns the battery FET and BGATE on, sends a single 128μs pulse is sent on the STAT and INT
outputs and the STATx and FAULT_x bits of the status registers and the battery/supply status registers are
updated in the I2C. Once the OVP fault is removed, the STATx and FAULT_x bits are cleared and the device
returns to normal operation.
Charge Status Outputs (STAT, INT)
The STAT output is used to indicate operation conditions for bq24272. STAT is pulled low during charging when
EN_STAT bit in the control register (0x02h) is set to “1”. When charge is complete or disabled, STAT is high
impedance. When a fault occurs, a 128-µs pulse (interrupt) is sent out to notify the host. The status of STAT
during different operation conditions is summarized in Table 1. STAT drives an LED for visual indication or can
be connected to the logic rail for host communication. The EN_STAT bit in the control register (00H) is used to
enable/disable the charge status for STAT. The interrupt pulses are unaffected by EN_STAT and will always be
shown. The INT output is identical to STAT and is used to interface with a low voltage host processor.

LOW_CHG Bit (Low Charge Mode Enable)
The LOW_CHG bit is used to reduce the charge current from the programmed value. This feature is used by
systems where battery NTC is monitored by the host and requires a reduced charge current setting or by
systems that need a “preconditioning” current for low battery voltages. Write a “1” to this bit to charge at half of
the programmed charge. Write a “0” to this bit to charge at the programmed charge current.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Output Inductor and Capacitor Selection Guidelines
When selecting an inductor, several attributes must be examined to find the right part for the application. First,
the inductance value should be selected. The bq24272 is designed to work with 1.5µH to 2.2µH inductors. The
chosen value will have an effect on efficiency and package size. Due to the smaller current ripple, some
efficiency gain is reached using the 2.2µH inductor, however, due to the physical size of the inductor, this may
not be a viable option. The 1.5µH inductor provides a good tradeoff between size and efficiency.
Once the inductance has been selected, the peak current must be calculated in order to choose the current
rating of the inductor. Use equation 2 to calculate the peak current.

IPEAK = ILOAD(MAX) ´ ç 1 + RIPPPLE ÷

è
ø
(3)
The inductor selected must have a saturation current rating less than or equal to the calculated IPEAK. Due to the
high currents possible with the bq24272, a thermal analysis must also be done for the inductor. Many inductors
have 40°C temperature rise rating. This is the DC current that will cause a 40°C temperature rise above the
ambient temperature in the inductor. For this analysis, the typical load current may be used adjusted for the duty
cycle of the load transients. For example, if the application requires a 1.5A DC load with peaks at 2.5A 20% of
the time, a Δ40°C temperature rise current must be greater than 1.7A:
ITEMPRISE = ILOAD + D ´ (IPEAK - ILOAD ) = 1.5A + 0.2 ´ (2.5A - 1.5A ) = 1.7A
(4)
The bq24272 provides internal loop compensation. Using this scheme, the bq24272 is stable with 10µF to 200µF
of local capacitance. The capacitance on the BAT rail can be higher if distributed amongst the rail. To reduce the
output voltage ripple, a ceramic capacitor with the capacitance between 10µF and 47µF is recommended for
local bypass to SYS.
PCB Layout Guidelines
It is important to pay special attention to the PCB layout. The following provides some guidelines:
• To obtain optimal performance, the power input capacitors, connected from the PMID input to PGND, must be
placed as close as possible to the bq24272
• Place 4.7µF input capacitor as close to PMID pin and PGND pin as possible to make high frequency current
loop area as small as possible. Place 1µF input capacitor GNDs as close to the respective PMID cap GND
and PGND pins as possible to minimize the ground difference between the input and PMID_.
• The local bypass capacitor from SYS to GND should be connected between the SYS pin and PGND of the
IC. The intent is to minimize the current path loop area from the SW pin through the LC filter and back to the
PGND pin.
• Place all decoupling capacitor close to their respective IC pin and as close as to PGND (do not place
components such that routing interrupts power stage currents). All small control signals should be routed
away from the high current paths.
• The PCB should have a ground plane (return) connected directly to the return of all components through vias
(two vias per capacitor for power-stage capacitors, one via per capacitor for small-signal components). It is
also recommended to put vias inside the PGND pads for the IC, if possible. A star ground design approach is
typically used to keep circuit block currents isolated (high-power/low-power small-signal) which reduces noisecoupling and ground-bounce issues. A single ground plane for this design gives good results. With this small
layout and a single ground plane, there is no ground-bounce issue, and having the components segregated
minimizes coupling between signals.
• The high-current charge paths into IN, BAT, SYS and from the SW pins must be sized appropriately for the
maximum charge current in order to avoid voltage drops in these traces. The PGND pins should be
connected to the ground plane to return current through the internal low-side FET.
• For high-current applications, the balls for the power paths should be connected to as much copper in the
board as possible. This allows better thermal performance as the board pulls heat away from the IC.
