The bq24295 is a highly integrated switch-mode battery charge management and system power path management device for 1 cell Li-Ion and Li-polymer battery in a wide range of power bank, tablet, and other portable device applications.

Its low impedance power path optimizes switch-mode operation efficiency, reduces battery charging time, and extends battery life during discharging phase. The I2C serial interface with charging and system settings makes the device a truly flexible solution. The device supports 3.9V – 6.2V USB input sources. It is compliant with USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 power specifications with input current and voltage regulation.

To set the default input current limit, the bq24295 detects the input source through D+/D– detection following the USB battery charging spec 1.2. In addition, the bq24295 detects non-standard 2A/1A adapters. The bq24295 supports battery boost operation. The power path management regulates the system slightly above battery voltage. The device automatically detects the battery voltage and charges the battery in three phases. It provides various safety features for battery charging and system operation. The bq24295 is available in a 24-pin, 4×4-mm thin VQFN package.
