Package
The bq25060 is a highly integrated Li-Ion linear
battery charger targeted at space-limited portable
applications. It operates from either a USB port or AC
Adapter and charges a single-cell Li-Ion battery with
up to 1A of charge current. The 30V input voltage
range with input over-voltage protections supports
low-cost unregulated adapters.
The bq25060 has a single power output that charges
the battery. The system load is connected to OUT.
The low-battery system startup circuitry maintains
OUT greater than 3.4V whenever an input source is
connected. This allows the system to start-up and run
whenever an input source is connected regardless of
the battery voltage. The charge current is
programmable up to 1A using the ISET input.
Additionally, a 4.9V 50mA LDO is integrated into the
IC for supplying low power external circuitry.
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 an internal temperature threshold is exceeded. The
charger power stage and charge current sense
functions are fully integrated. The charger function
has high accuracy current and voltage regulation
loops, charge status display, and charge termination.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), RqJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable ambient
temperature is PD = [TJ(max) - TA]/RqJA.
This data is based on using the JEDEC High-K board and the exposed die pad is connected to a Cu pad on the board. The pad is
connected to the ground plane by a 2×3 via matrix.

I/O
DESCRIPTION
IN
1
I
Input power supply. IN is connected to the external DC supply (AC adapter or USB port). Bypass IN to VSS with
at least a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
ISET
2
I
Current programming input. Connect a resistor from ISET to VSS to program the input current limit when the user
proagammable mode is selected by the EN pin. The resistor range is between 1kΩ and 10kΩ to set the current
between 100 mA and 1A.
VSS
3
–
Ground terminal. Connect to the thermal pad and the ground plane of the circuit.
LDO
4
O
LDO output. LDO is regulated to 4.9V and drives up to 50mA. Bypass LDO to VSS with a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor. LDO is enabled when VUVLO < VIN < VOVP.
TS
5
I
Battery pack NTC monitoring input. Connect the battery pack NTC from TS to VSS to monitor battery pack
temperature. The default pack temperature range is 0°C to 45°C thresholds.
EN
7
I
Enable input. Drive EN high to disable the IC. Connect EN to VSS to place the bq25060 in the user pgrammable
mode where the input current is programmed using the ISET input. Leave EN flaoting to place the bq25060 in
USB500 mode. See the Charger Enable section for details on using the EN interface.
CHG
8
O
Charge status indicator open-drain output. CHG is pulled low while the device is charging the battery. CHG goes
high impedance when the battery is fully charged and does not indicate subsequent recharge cycles.
BAT
6
O
Battery connection output. BAT is the sense input for the battery as well as the precharge current output. Connect
BAT to the battery and bypass BAT to VSS with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
BGATE
9
I/O Battery P-Channel FET gate drive output. Connect BGATE to the gate of the external P-Channel FET that
connects the battery to OUT. Connect BGATE to VSS if the external FET is not used. No external capacitor is
recommended from BGATE to GND.
OUT
10
O
System output connection. OUT supplies the system with a minimum voltage of 3.4V (min.) to ensure system
operation whenever an input adapter is connected regardless of the battery voltage. Bypass OUT to VSS with a
minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor.
Pad
–
There is an internal electrical connection between the exposed thermal pad and the VSS pin of the device. The
thermal pad must be connected to the same potential as the VSS pin on the printed circuit board. Do not use the
thermal pad as the primary ground input for the device. VSS pin must be connected to ground at all times.

DETAILED FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The bq25060 is a highly integrated Li-Ion linear battery charger targeted at space-limited portable applications. It
operates from either a USB port or AC Adapter and charges a single-cell Li-Ion battery with up to 1A of charge
current. The 30V input voltage range with input over-voltage protections supports low-cost unregulated adapters.
The bq25060 has a single power output that charges the battery. The system load is connected to OUT. The
low-battery system startup circuitry maintains OUT pin voltage at VOUT(REG) whenever an input source is
connected. This allows the system to start-up and run whenever an input source is connected regardless of the
battery voltage. The charge current is programmable up to 1A using the EN input. Additionally, a 4.9V 50mA
LDO is integrated into the IC for supplying low power external circuitry.
External FET Controller (BGATE)
The External Power Path Control feature is implemented using the BGATE output. BGATE is also used to
enable/ disable the External Power Path Control feature. When power is first applied to either VBAT or VIN on the
bq25060, the BGATE output is tested. If the BGATE pin is connected to VSS, the External Power Path Control
feature is disabled. In order to enable the External Power Path Control feature after it has been disabled, the
battery and the input source must be removed and reconnected and BGATE must NOT be connected to VSS.
With External Power Path Control enabled, BGATE is used to drive an external P-channel FET that connects the
battery to the system output. The state of this FET is dependant on the battery voltage and the IC status. In
discharge mode, BGATE is pulled to GND to turn the external FET on fully. During discharge mode, the output is
connected directly to the battery. Discharge mode is entered under the following conditions:
1. IC disabled or no input power
2. Supplement mode
When not in one of these conditions, the BGATE output is controlled by the bq25060 and changes depending on
which mode is required. See the Charging Operation section for more details.

Enable/ Disable External Power Path Control
When power is first applied to the bq25060, either at the IN or BAT input, the bq25060 checks the BGATE
output. The device sources a small current out of BGATE for 2ms and monitors the voltage. If VBGATE is
connected to ground and the voltage does not rise above logic High, the External Power Path Control feature is
disabled and VLOWV is set to 2.5V. If the BGATE voltage rises above logic High, the External Power Path
Control feature is enabled and VLOWV is set to 2.9V. The bq25060 only does this check when power is initially
applied. Power must removed from IN and BAT and then reapplied to initiate another check. Figure 17 illustrates
the startup check procedure.

Charging Operation
The bq25060 charges a battery in 3 stages while maintaining a minimum system output. When the bq25060 is
enabled by EN, the battery voltage is monitored to verify which stage of charging must be used. The bq25060
charges in precharge mode, minimum output regulation mode, or normal CC/CV mode based on the battery
voltage.

Precharge Mode (VBAT ≤ VLOWV)
The bq25060 enters precharge mode when VBAT ≤ VLOWV. Upon entering precharge mode, the battery is charged
with a 40mA current source and /CHG goes low. During precharge mode, VOUT is regulated to 3.5V and the
battery is charged from the internal fixed 40mA current source connected to the BAT output. With BGATE
connected to GND, the system output is connected to the battery and therefore the system voltage is equal to
the battery voltage.
