• Input Overvoltage Protection
The bq2438x family are charger front-end integrated
circuits designed to provide protection to Li-ion
• Accurate Battery Overvoltage Protection
batteries from failures of the charging circuitry. The IC
• Output Short-Circuit Protection
continuously monitors the input voltage and the
• Soft-Start to Prevent Inrush Currents
battery voltage. The device operates like a linear
• Soft-Stop to Prevent Voltage Spikes regulator, maintaining a 5.5-V (bq24380) or 5-V
(bq24381, bq24382) output with input voltages up to
• 30-V Maximum Input Voltage
the Input overvoltage threshold. During input
• Supports up to 1.7-A Load Current
overvoltage conditions, the IC immediately turns off
• Thermal Shutdown
the internal pass FET disconnecting the charging
circuitry from the damaging input source. Additionally,
• Enable Function
if the battery voltage rises to unsafe levels while
• Fault Status Indication
charging, power is removed from the system. The IC
• Small 2 mm × 2 mm 8-Pin SON Package
checks for short-circuit or overload conditions at its
output when turning the pass FET on, and if it finds
unsafe conditions, it switches off, and then rechecks
the conditions. Additionally, the IC also monitors its
• Smart Phones, Mobile Phones
die temperature and switches off if it exceeds 140 ° C.
• PDAs
When the IC is controlled by a processor, the IC
• MP3 Players
provides status information about fault conditions to
• Low-Power Handheld Devices
the host.
