JAJSL52A april 2020 – february 2021 BQ25968
PRODUCTION DATA
The system will have a specific battery charging profile that is unique due to the switched cap architecture. During the trickle charge and precharge of the battery up to 3.5 V, the charging will be controlled by the primary charger (BQ25890 in Figure 9-1). Once the battery voltage reaches 3.5 V, the adapter can negotiate for a higher bus voltage, enable the BQ25968 charging, and regulate the current on VBUS to charge the battery. In the CC phase, the protection in the BQ25968 will not regulate the battery voltage, but will provide feedback to the system to increase/decrease current as needed, as well as disable the output if the voltage is exceeded. Once the CV point is reached, the BQ25968 will provide feedback to the adapter to reduce the current, effectively tapering the current until a point where the primary charger takes over again. This charging profile is shown in Figure 9-2.
