Texas Instruments bq25773 Buck-Boost Battery Charge Controller

Texas Instruments bq25773 Buck-Boost Battery Charge Controller is a synchronous NVDC buck-boost battery charge controller to charge a 2- to 5-cell battery from a wide range of input sources. These input sources include USB adapters, extended power range (EPR) USB-C™ Power Delivery (PD) sources, standard power range (SPR) USB-C Power Delivery (PD) sources, and traditional adapters. The device offers a low component count, high-efficiency solution for space-constrained, 2- to 5-cell battery charging applications.

The NVDC configuration allows the system to be regulated based on battery voltage. It ensures that the system's minimum voltage does not drop below it. The system keeps operating even when the battery is completely discharged or removed. When load power exceeds the input source rating, the battery goes into supplement mode, preventing the system from crashing. The Texas Instruments bq25773 is available in a 36-pin 4mm × 5mm WQFN package.
