Input Overvoltage Protection
The bq2438x family are charger front-end integrated
circuits designed to provide protection to Li-ion

battery voltage. The device operates like a linear
Soft-Stop to Prevent Voltage Spikes regulator, maintaining a 5.5-V (bq24380) or 5-V

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
