3 Description
The bq24618 device is highly integrated Li-ion or Lipolymer switched-mode battery-charge controller.
The
bq24618
offers
a
constant-frequency
synchronous switching PWM controller with highaccuracy charge current and voltage regulation,
charge preconditioning, termination, adapter current
regulation and charge status monitoring.
The bq24618 operates from either a USB port or AC
adapter and supports charge currents up to 10 A. The
device charges the battery in three phases:
preconditioning, constant current, and constant
voltage. Charge is terminated when the current
reaches a minimum user-selectable level. A
programmable charge timer provides a safety backup
for charge termination. The bq24618 automatically
restarts the charge cycle if the battery voltage falls
below an internal threshold, and enters a lowquiescent current sleep mode when the input voltage
falls below the battery voltage.

ACDRV
3
AC adapter to system MOSFET driver output. Connect through a 1-kΩ resistor to the gate of the ACFET P-channel
power MOSFET and the reverse conduction blocking P-channel power MOSFET. The internal gate drive is
asymmetrical, allowing a quick turnoff and slow turnon, in addition to the internal break-before-make logic with
respect to BATDRV. If needed, an optional capacitor from gate to source of the ACFET is used to slow down the ON
and OFF times.
ACN
1
Adapter current sense resistor, negative input. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from ACN to ACP to provide
differential-mode filtering. An optional 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from the ACN pin to GND for commonmode filtering.
ACP
2
Adapter current sense resistor, positive input. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from ACN to ACP to provide
differential-mode filtering. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from the ACP pin to GND for common-mode filtering.
ACSET
16
Adapter current set input. The voltage on the ACSET pin programs the input current regulation set point during
Dynamic Power Management (DPM).
BATDRV
23
Battery-to-system MOSFET driver output. Gate drive for the battery-to-system load BAT PMOS power FET to isolate
the system from the battery to prevent current flow from the system to the battery, while allowing a low-impedance
path from battery to system. Connect this pin through a 1-kΩ resistor to the gate of the input BAT P-channel
MOSFET. Connect the source of the FET to the system load voltage node. Connect the drain of the FET to the
battery pack positive terminal. The internal gate drive is asymmetrical to allow a quick turnoff and slow turnon, in
addition to the internal break-before-make logic with respect to ACDRV. If needed, an optional capacitor from gate to
source of the BATFET is used to slow down the ON and OFF times.
BTST
22
PWM high-side driver positive supply. Connect to the phase-switching node (junction of the low-side power MOSFET
drain, high-side power MOSFET source, and output inductor). Connect the 0.1-μF bootstrap capacitor from PH to
BTST, and a bootstrap Schottky diode from REGN to BTST.
CE
4
Charge enable active HIGH logic input. HI enables charge. LO disables charge. It has an internal 1-MΩ pulldown
resistor.
GND
17
Low current sensitive analog and digital ground. On PCB layout, connect with thermal pad underneath the IC.
HIDRV
21
PWM high-side driver output. Connect to the gate of the high-side power MOSFET with a short trace.
ISET1
11
Fast charge current set input. The voltage on the ISET1 pin programs the fast charge current regulation set point.
ISET2
15
Precharge and termination current set input. The voltage on the ISET2 pin programs the precharge current regulation
set point and termination current trigger point.

PIN
NAME
DESCRIPTION
NO.
LODRV
19
PWM low-side driver output. Connect to the gate of the low-side power MOSFET with a short trace.
PG
8
Open-drain power good status output. Active LOW when IC has a valid VCC (not in UVLO or ACOV or SLEEP
mode). Active HIGH when IC has an invalid VCC. PG can be used to drive an LED or communicate with a host
processor.
PH
20
PWM high-side driver negative supply. Connect to the phase-switching node (junction of the low-side power
MOSFET drain, high-side power MOSFET source, and output inductor).
REGN
18
PWM low-side driver positive 6-V supply output. Connect a 1-μF ceramic capacitor from REGN to the GND pin, close
to the IC. Use for low-side driver and high-side driver bootstrap voltage by connecting a small-signal Schottky diode
from REGN to BTST.
SRN
13
Charge current sense resistor, negative input. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from SRN to SRP to provide
differential-mode filtering. An optional 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from the SRN pin to GND for commonmode filtering.
SRP
14
Charge current sense resistor, positive input. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from SRN to SRP to provide
differential-mode filtering. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor is placed from the SRP pin to GND for common-mode filtering.
STAT1
5
Open-drain charge status pin to indicate various charger operations (see Table 2).
Thermal
Pad
—
Exposed pad beneath the IC. Always solder the thermal pad to the board, and have vias on the thermal-pad plane
star-connecting to GND and to the ground plane for a high-current power converter. It also serves as a thermal pad
to dissipate the heat.
TS
6
Temperature qualification voltage input for battery pack negative temperature coefficient thermistor. Program the hot
and cold temperature window with a resistor divider from VREF to TS to GND (see Figure 15).
TTC
7
Safety Timer and termination control. Connect a capacitor from this node to GND to set the timer. When this input is
LOW, the timer and termination are disabled. When this input is HIGH, the timer is disabled but termination is
allowed.
STAT2
9
Open-drain charge status pin to indicate various charger operations (see Table 2).
VFB
12
Output voltage analog feedback adjustment. Connect the output of a resistive voltage divider from the battery
terminals to this node to adjust the output battery regulation voltage.
VREF
10
3.3-V regulated voltage output. Place a 1-μF ceramic capacitor from VREF to GND pin close to the IC. This voltage
could be used for programming of voltage and current regulation and for programming the TS threshold.
VCC
24
IC power positive supply. Connect through a 10-Ω to the common-source (diode-OR) point: source of high-side Pchannel MOSFET and source of reverse-blocking power P-channel MOSFET. Place a 1-μF ceramic capacitor from
VCC to the GND pin close to the IC.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating
Conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
All voltages are with respect to GND if not specified. Currents are positive into, negative out of the specified terminal. Consult Packaging
Section of the data book for thermal limitations and considerations of packages.
If the battery voltage in the application exceeds 16 V, a series resistor between the battery pack and VFB is required. The top resistor of
the resistor-divider on VFB satisfies this requirement.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The bq2461x is a stand-alone, integrated Li-ion or Li-polymer battery charger that accommodates USB
applications with a minimum input voltage of 4.7 V. It employs a switched-mode synchronous buck PWM
controller with constant switching frequency. The device controls external switches to prevent battery discharge
back to the input, to connect the adapter to the system, and to connect the battery to the system using 6-V gate
drives for better system efficiency. The bq2461x features Dynamic Power Management (DPM) which reduces
battery charge current when the input power limit is reached to avoid overloading the AC adapter when supplying
current to the system and the battery charger simultaneously. A highly accurate current sense amplifier enables
precise measurement of input current from the AC adapter to monitor the overall system power. The input current
limit can be configured through the ACSET pin of the device.
The bq2461x has a battery detect scheme that allows it to automatically detect the presence and absence of a
battery. When the battery is detected, charging begins in one of three phases (depending upon battery voltage):
precharge, constant current (fast charge current regulation), and constant voltage (fast charge voltage
regulation). The device will terminate charging when the termination current threshold has been reached and will
begin a recharge cycle when the battery voltage has dropped below the recharge threshold (VRECHG). Precharge,
constant current, and termination current can be configured through the ISET1 and ISET2 pins, allowing for
flexibility in battery charging profile. During charging, the integrated fault monitors of the device, such as battery
overvoltage protection, battery short detection (VBATSHT), thermal shutdown (internal TSHUT and TS pin), safety
timer expiration (TTC pin), and input voltage protection (VACOV), ensure battery safety.
The bq2461x has three status pins (STAT1, STAT2, and PG) to indicate the charging status and input voltage
(AC adapter) status. These pins can be used to drive LEDs or communicate with a host processor.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Battery Voltage Regulation
The bq24618 uses a high-accuracy voltage band gap and regulator for the high charging voltage accuracy. The
charge voltage is programmed through a resistor divider from the battery to ground, with the midpoint tied to the
VFB pin. The voltage at the VFB pin is regulated to 2.1 V, giving the following equation for the regulation voltage:
é R2 ù
V
= 2.1 V ´ ê1+
ú,
BAT
ë R1 û
where
•
•
R2 is connected from VFB to the battery.
R1 is connected from VFB to GND.
(1)
8.3.2 Battery Current Regulation
The ISET1 input sets the maximum fast-charging current. Battery charge current is sensed by resistor RSR
connected between SRP and SRN. The full-scale differential voltage between SRP and SRN is 100 mV. Thus,
for a 10-mΩ sense resistor, the maximum charging current is 10 A. The equation for charge current is:
VISET1
ICHARGE =
20 ´ RSR
(2)
VISET1, the input voltage range of ISET1, is from 0 V to 2 V. The SRP and SRN pins are used to sense voltage
across RSR using the default value of 10 mΩ. However, resistors of other values can also be used. A larger
sense resistor gives a larger sense voltage and a higher regulation accuracy, but at the expense of higher
conduction loss.
8.3.3 Input Adapter Current Regulation
The total input from an AC adapter or other DC source is a function of the system supply current and the battery
charging current. System current normally fluctuates as portions of the systems are powered up or down. Without
DPM, the source must be able to supply the maximum system current and the maximum charger input current
simultaneously. By using DPM, the battery charger reduces the charging current when the input current exceeds
the input current limit set by ACSET. The current capability of the AC adaptor can be lowered, reducing system
cost.
Similar to sensing battery regulation current, adaptor current is sensed by resistor RAC connected between ACP
and ACN. Its maximum value is set by ACSET using Equation 3:
VACSET
IDPM =
20 ´ RAC
(3)
VACSET, the input voltage range of ACSET, is from 0 V to 2 V. The ACP and ACN pins are used to sense voltage
across RAC using the default value of 10 mΩ. However, resistors of other values can also be used. A larger
sense resistor gives a larger sense voltage and a higher regulation accuracy, but at the expense of higher
conduction loss.
8.3.4 Precharge
On power up, if the battery voltage is below the VLOWV threshold, the bq24618 applies the precharge current to
the battery. This feature is intended to revive deeply discharged cells. If the VLOWV threshold is not reached within
30 minutes of initiating precharge, the charger turns off and a FAULT is indicated on the status pins.
The precharge current is determined by the voltage on the ISET2 pin, VISET2, according to Equation 4.
VISET2
IPRECHARGE =
100 ´ R SR

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.5 Charge Termination, Recharge, and Safety Timer
The bq24618 monitors the charging current during the voltage regulation phase. When VTTC is valid, termination
is detected while the voltage on the VFB pin is higher than the VRECH threshold AND the charge current is less
than the ITERM threshold, as calculated in Equation 5:
VISET2
ITERM =
100 ´ RSR
(5)
The input voltage of ISET2 is from 0 V to 2 V. The minimum precharge and termination current is clamped to be
around 125 mA with default 10-mΩ sensing resistor. As a safety backup, the bq24618 also provides a
programmable charge timer. The charge time is programmed by the capacitor connected between the TTC pin
and GND, and is given by Equation 6
tCHARGE = CTTC ´ K TTC
where
•
•
A
•
•
•
CTTC (range from 0.01 µF to 0.11 µF to give 1-h to 10-h safety time) is the capacitor connected from the TTC
pin to GND.
KTTC is the constant multiplier (5.6 min/nF).
(6)
new charge cycle is initiated and the safety timer is reset when any of the following conditions occurs:
The battery voltage falls below the recharge threshold.
A power-on-reset (POR) event occurs.
CE is toggled.
The TTC pin may be taken LOW to disable termination and to disable the safety timer. If TTC is pulled to VREF,
the bq24618 continues to allow termination but disable the safety timer. TTC taken low resets the safety timer.
When ACOV, VCCLOWV, and SLEEP mode resume normal, the safety timer is reset.
8.3.6 Power Up
The bq24618 uses a SLEEP comparator to determine the source of power on the VCC pin, because VCC can be
supplied either from the battery or the adapter. If the VCC voltage is greater than the SRN voltage, the bq24618
enables the ACFET and disables BATFET. If all other conditions are met for charging, the bq24618 then
attempts to charge the battery (see Enable and Disable Charging). If the SRN voltage is greater than VCC,
indicating that the battery is the power source, the bq24618 enables the BATFET and enters a low quiescent
current ( VRECH

Figure 16. Battery-Detection Flow Chart
Once the device has powered up, an 8-mA discharge current is applied to the SRN terminal. If the battery
voltage falls below the LOWV threshold within 1 second, the discharge source is turned off, and the charger is
turned on at low charge current (125 mA). If the battery voltage rises above the recharge threshold within 500
ms, there is no battery present and the cycle restarts. If either the 500-ms or 1-second timer times out before its
respective threshold is hit, a battery is detected and a charge cycle is initiated.

Ensure that the total output capacitance at the battery node is not so large that the discharge current source
cannot pull the voltage below the LOWV threshold during the 1-second discharge time. The maximum output
capacitance can be calculated as follows:
CMAX =

where
•
•
•
•
CMAX is the maximum output capacitance.
IDISCH is the discharge current.
tDISCH is the discharge time.
R2 and R1 are the voltage feedback resistors from the battery to the VFB pin.
(10)
The 0.5 factor is the difference between the RECHARGE and the LOWV thresholds at the VFB pin.
Example
For a three-cell Li+ charger, with R2 = 500 kΩ, R1 = 100 kΩ (giving 12.6 V for voltage regulation), IDISCH = 8 mA,
tDISCH = 1 second,

(11)
Based on these calculations, no more than 2.7 mF should be allowed on the battery node for proper operation of
the battery detection circuit.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
9.2.2.1 Inductor Selection
The bq2461x has 600-kHz switching frequency to allow the use of small inductor and capacitor values. Inductor
saturation current should be higher than the charging current (ICHG) plus half the ripple current (IRIPPLE):
ISAT ³ ICHG + (1/2) IRIPPLE
(12)
The inductor ripple current depends on input voltage (VIN), duty cycle (D = VOUT/VIN), switching frequency (fS) and
inductance (L):
V ´ D ´ (1 - D)
IRIPPLE = IN
fS ´ L
(13)
The maximum inductor ripple current happens with D = 0.5 or close to 0.5. For example, the battery charging
voltage range is from 9 V to 12.6 V for a three-cell battery pack. For 20-V adapter voltage, 10-V battery voltage
gives the maximum inductor ripple current. Another example is a four-cell battery, where the battery voltage
range is from 12 V to 16.8 V, and 12-V battery voltage gives the maximum inductor ripple current.
Usually inductor ripple is designed in the range of 20% to 40% of maximum charging current as a trade-off
between inductor size and efficiency for a practical design.
The bq24618 has cycle-by-cycle charge undercurrent protection (UCP) by monitoring the charge current-sensing
resistor to prevent negative inductor current. The typical UCP threshold is 5 mV falling edge, corresponding to
0.5 A falling edge for a 10-mΩ charge current-sensing resistor.
9.2.2.2 Input Capacitor
The input capacitor should have enough ripple current rating to absorb the input switching ripple current. The
worst-case RMS ripple current is half of the charging current when the duty cycle is 0.5. If the converter does not
operate at 50% duty cycle, then the worst-case capacitor RMS current ICIN occurs where the duty cycle is closest
to 50% and can be estimated by the following equation:
ICIN = ICHG ´
D ´ (1 - D)
(14)
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor such as X7R or X5R is preferred for the input decoupling capacitor and should be
placed as close as possible to the drain of the high-side MOSFET and source of the low-side MOSFET. The
voltage rating of the capacitor must be higher than the normal input voltage level. A 25-V rating or higher
capacitor is preferred for 20-V input voltage. A 10-µF to 20-µF capacitor is suggested for typical 3-A to 4-A
charging current.
9.2.2.3 Output Capacitor
The output capacitor also should have enough ripple current rating to absorb output switching ripple current. The
output capacitor RMS current ICOUT is given:

(16)
At certain input/output voltage and switching frequency, the voltage ripple can be reduced by increasing the
output filter LC.
The bq24618 has an internal loop compensator. To get good loop stability, the resonant frequency of the output
inductor and output capacitor should be designed from 12 kHz to 17 kHz. The preferred ceramic capacitor is 25V or higher rating, X7R or X5R for 4-cell applications.
9.2.2.4 Power MOSFET Selection
Two external N-channel MOSFETs are used for a synchronous switching battery charger. The gate drivers are
internally integrated into the IC with 6 V of gate drive voltage. MOSFETs of 30-V or higher voltage rating are
preferred for 20-V input voltage and 40-V or higher rating MOSFETs are preferred for 20-V to 28-V input voltage.
Figure-of-merit (FOM) is usually used for selecting proper the MOSFET, based on a trade-off between the
conduction loss and switching loss. For a top-side MOSFET, FOM is defined as the product of a MOSFET ONresistance, rDS(on), and the gate-to-drain charge, QGD. For a bottom-side MOSFET, FOM is defined as the product
of the MOSFET ON-resistance, rDS(on), and the total gate charge, QG.
FOM top = RDS(on) ´ QG D
FOMbottom = RDS(on) ´ QG
(17)
The lower the FOM value, the lower the total power loss. Usually, lower rDS(on) has higher cost with the same
package size.
The top-side MOSFET loss includes conduction loss and switching loss. It is a function of duty cycle (D =
VOUT/VIN), charging current (ICHG), MOSFET ON-resistance rDS(on)), input voltage (VIN), switching frequency (fS),
turnon time (ton) and turnoff time (toff):
1
Ptop = D ´ ICHG2 ´ RDS(on) +
´ VIN ´ ICHG ´ (t on + t off ) ´ fS
2
(18)
The first item represents the conduction loss. Usually MOSFET rDS(on) increases by 50% with a 100ºC junction
temperature rise. The second term represents the switching loss. The MOSFET turnon and turnoff times are
given by:
Q

ton = SW , t off = SW
Ion
Ioff
where
•
•
•
Qsw is the switching charge.
Ion is the turnon gate-drive current.
Ioff is the turnoff gate-drive current.
(19)
If the switching charge is not given in the MOSFET data sheet, it can be estimated by gate-to-drain charge (QGD)
and gate-to-source charge (QGS):
1
QSW = QGD +
´ QGS
2
(20)
Total gate drive current can be estimated by the REGN voltage (VREGN), MOSFET plateau voltage (Vplt), total
turnon gate resistance (Ron), and turnoff gate resistance (Roff) of the gate driver:
VREG N - Vplt
Vplt
Ion =
, Ioff =
Ron
Roff
(21)
The conduction loss of the bottom-side MOSFET is calculated with the following equation when it operates in
synchronous continuous conduction mode:

Pbottom = (1 - D) ´ ICHG 2 ´ RDS(on)
(22)
If the SRP-SRN voltage decreases below 5 mV (the charger is also forced into nonsynchronous mode when the
average SRP-SRN voltage is lower than 1.25 mV), the low-side FET is turned off for the remainder of the
switching cycle to prevent negative inductor current.
As a result, all the freewheeling current goes through the body diode of the bottom-side MOSFET. The maximum
charging current in nonsynchronous mode can be up to 0.9 A (0.5 A typical) for a 10-mΩ charging current
sensing resistor, considering IC tolerance. Choose the bottom-side MOSFET with either an internal Schottky or
body diode capable of carrying the maximum nonsynchronous mode charging current.
MOSFET gate driver power loss contributes to the dominant losses on the controller IC when the buck converter
is switching. Choosing a MOSFET with a small Qg_total reduces the IC power loss to avoid thermal shutdown.
PICLoss_driver = VIN × Qg_total × fs
where
•
Qg_total is the total gate charge for both upper and lower MOSFET at 6 V VREGN.
(23)
9.2.2.5 Input Filter Design
During adapter hot plug-in, the parasitic inductance and input capacitor from the adapter cable form a secondorder system. The voltage spike at the VCC pin may be beyond the IC maximum voltage rating and damage the
IC. The input filter must be carefully designed and tested to prevent an overvoltage event on the VCC pin. The
ACP/ACN pin must be placed after the input ACFET in order to avoid overvoltage stress on these pins during hot
plug-in.
There are several methods to damping or limiting the overvoltage spike during adapter hot plug-in. An electrolytic
capacitor with high ESR as an input capacitor can damp the overvoltage spike well below the IC maximum pin
voltage rating. A high current capability TVS Zener diode can also limit the overvoltage level to an IC-safe level.
However, these two solutions may not have low cost or small size.
A cost-effective and small-size solution is shown in Figure 20. R1 and C1 comprise a damping RC network to
damp the hot plug-in oscillation. As a result, the overvoltage spike is limited to a safe level. D1 is used for
reverse voltage protection for the VCC pin (it can be the body diode of the input ACFET). C2 is a VCC pin
decoupling capacitor, and it should be placed as close as possible to the VCC pin. R2 and C2 form a damping
RC network to further protect the IC from high dv/dt and high-voltage spikes. The value of C2 should be less
than the value of C1 so R1 can be dominant over the ESR orf C1 to get enough damping effect for hot plug-in.
The R1 and R2 packages must be sized to handle the inrush current power loss according to the resistor
manufacturer’s data sheet. The filter component values always must be verified with the real application, and
minor adjustments may be needed to fit in the real application circuit.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
For proper operation of bq2461x, VCC must be from 5 V to 28 V (bq24610) or 24 V (bq24617). To begin
charging, VCC must be higher than SRN by at least 500 mV (otherwise, the device will be in sleep mode). TI
recommends an input voltage of at least 1.5 V to 2 V higher than the battery voltage, taking into consideration
the DC losses in the high-side FET (Rdson), inductor (DCR), and input sense resistor (between ACP and ACN),
the body diode drop of RBFET between VCC and input power supply, and battery sense resistor (between SRP
and SRN). Power limit for the input supply must be greater than the max power required by either the system
load or for battery charging (the greater of the two).
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The switching node rise and fall times should be minimized for minimum switching loss. Proper layout of the
components to minimize the high-frequency current-path loop (see Figure 23) is important to prevent electrical
and magnetic field radiation and high-frequency resonance problems. The following is a PCB layout priority list
for proper layout. Layout of the PCB according to this specific order is essential.
1. Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the switching MOSFET supply and ground connections, and
use the shortest-possible copper trace connection. These parts should be placed on the same layer of PCB,
instead of on different layers using vias to make the connection.
2. The IC should be placed close to the switching MOSFET gate terminals to keep the gate-drive signal traces
short for a clean MOSFET drive. The IC can be placed on the other side of the PCB from the switching
MOSFETs.
3. Place the inductor input terminal as close as possible to the switching MOSFET output terminal. Minimize the
copper area of this trace to lower electrical and magnetic field radiation, but make the trace wide enough to
carry the charging current. Do not use multiple layers in parallel for this connection. Minimize parasitic
capacitance from this area to any other trace or plane.
4. The charging-current sensing resistor should be placed right next to the inductor output. Route the sense
leads connected across the sensing resistor back to the IC in the same layer, close to each other (minimize
loop area), and do not route the sense leads through a high-current path (see Figure 24 for the Kelvin
connection for best current accuracy). Place decoupling capacitors on these traces next to the IC.
5. Place the output capacitor next to the sensing resistor output and ground.
6. The output capacitor ground connections must be tied to the same copper that connects to the input
capacitor ground before connecting to system ground.
7. Route the analog ground separately from the power ground and use a single ground connection to tie the
charger power ground to the charger analog ground. Just beneath the IC, use the copper pour for analog
ground, but avoid the power pins to reduce inductive and capacitive noise coupling. Connect the analog
ground to GND. Connect the analog ground and power ground together using the thermal pad as the single
ground connection point. Alternatively, use a 0-Ω resistor to tie the analog ground to power ground (the
thermal pad should tie to analog ground in this case). A star-connection under the thermal pad is highly
recommended.
8. It is critical to solder the exposed thermal pad on the back side of the IC package to the PCB ground. Ensure
that there are sufficient thermal vias directly under the IC connecting to the ground plane on the other layers.
9. Place decoupling capacitors next to the IC pins, and make the trace connection as short as possible.
10. All via sizes and numbers must be adequate for a given current path.
