DESCRIPTION
The bq24270 and bq24271 are highly integrated single cell Li-Ion battery charger and system power path
management devices targeted for space-limited, portable applications with high capacity batteries. The single cell
charger has several input current limits which allow operation from either a USB port or higher power input
supply (i.e. AC adapter or wireless charging input) for a versatile solution.

These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.
DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED)
The power path management feature allows the bq24270 and bq24271 to power the system from a high
efficiency DC to DC converter while simultaneously and independently charging the battery. The charger
monitors the battery current at all times and reduces the charge current when the system load requires current
above the input current limit. This allows for proper charge termination and timer operation. The system voltage
is regulated to the battery voltage but will not drop below 3.5 V. This minimum system voltage support enables
the system to run with a defective or absent battery pack and enables instant system turn-on even with a totally
discharged battery or no battery. The power-path management architecture also permits the battery to
supplement the system current requirements when the adapter cannot deliver the peak system currents. This
enables the use of a smaller adapter. The charge parameters are programmable using the I2C interface
The battery is charged in three phases: precharge, fast charge constant current and constant voltage. In all
charge phases, an internal control loop monitors the IC junction temperature and reduces the charge current if
the internal temperature threshold is exceeded. Additionally, a voltage-based battery pack thermistor monitoring
input (TS) is included that monitors battery temperature for safe charging The TS function for bq24270 and
bq24271 are JEITA compatible.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The bq24270 and bq24271 are highly integrated single cell Li-Ion battery chargers and system power path
management devices targeted for space-limited, portable applications with high capacity batteries. The single-
input, single cell charger operates from either a USB port or alternate power source (i.e. wall adapter or wireless
power input) for a versatile solution.
The power path management feature allows the bq24270 and bq24271 to power the system from a high
efficiency DC to DC converter while simultaneously and independently charging the battery. The charger
monitors the battery current at all times and reduces the charge current when the system load requires current
above the input current limit. This allows for proper charge termination and enables the system to run with a
defective or absent battery pack. Additionally, this enables instant system turn-on even with a totally discharged
battery or no battery. The power-path management architecture also permits the battery to supplement the
system current requirements when the adapter cannot deliver the peak system currents. This enables the use of
a smaller adapter. The charge parameters are programmable using the I2C interface.
The battery is charged in three phases: conditioning, constant current and constant voltage. In all charge phases,
an internal control loop monitors the IC junction temperature and reduces the charge current if the internal
temperature threshold is exceeded.
Charge Mode Operation
Charge Profile
The internal battery MOSFET is used to charge the battery. When the battery is above the MINSYS voltage, the
internal FET is on to maximize efficiency and the PWM converter regulates the charge current into the battery.
When battery is less than MINSYS, the SYS is regulated to VSYS(REG) and battery is charged using the battery
FET to regulate the charge current. There are 5 loops that influence the charge current:
Constant current loop (CC)
Constant voltage loop (CV)
Thermal-regulation loop
Minimum system-voltage loop (MINSYS)
Input-voltage dynamic power-management loop (V(IN-DPM))
During the charging process, all five loops are enabled and the one that is dominant takes control. The bq24270
supports a precision Li-Ion or Li-Polymer charging system for single-cell applications. The Dynamic Power Path
Management (DPPM) feature regulates the system voltage to a minimum of VMINSYS, so that startup is enabled
even for a missing or deeply discharged battery. Figure 3shows a typical charge profile including the minimum
system output voltage feature.

Figure 3. Typical Charging Profile of bq24270 and bq24271
PWM Controller in Charge Mode
The bq24270 and bq24271 provide an integrated, fixed-frequency 1.5 MHz voltage-mode controller to power the
system and supply the charge current. The voltage loop is internally compensated and provides enough phase
margin for stable operation, allowing the use of small ceramic capacitors with low ESR. The input scheme for the
devices prevents battery discharge when the supply voltages are lower than VBAT. The high-side N-MOSFET
(Q1) switches to control the power delivered to the output. The DRV LDO provides a supply for the gate drive for
the low side MOSFET, while a bootstrap circuit (BST) with an external bootstrap capacitor is used to boost up
the gate drive voltage for Q1.
The input is protected by a cycle-by-cycle current limit that is sensed through the internal sense MOSFETs for
Q1. The threshold for the current limit is set to a nominal 5-A peak current. The input also uses an input current
limit that limits the current from the power source
Battery Charging Process
When the battery is deeply discharged or shorted (V(BAT) < V(BATSHRT)) the bq24270 and bq24271 apply IBATSHRT
to close the pack protector switch and bring the battery voltage up to acceptable charging levels. During this
time, the battery FET is linearly regulated and the system output is regulated to VSYS(REG). Once the battery rises
above V(BATSHRT), the charge current is regulated to the value set in the I2C register. The battery FET is linearly
regulated to maintain the system voltage at VSYS(REG). Under normal conditions, the time spent in this region is a
short percentage of the total charging time, so the linear regulation of the charge current does not affect the

overall charging efficiency for long. If the die temperature does heat up, the thermal regulation circuit reduces the
charge current to maintain a die temperature less than 125°C. If the current limit for the SYS output is reached
(limited by the input current limit, or V(IN_DPM)), the SYS output drops to the V(MINSYS) output voltage. When this
happens, the current is reduced to provide the system with all the current that is needed while maintaining the
minimum system voltage. If the charge current is reduced to 0 mA, pulling further current from SYS causes the
output to fall to the battery voltage and enter supplement mode (see the Dynamic Power Path Management
section for more details
Once the battery is charged enough to where the system voltage begins to rise above VSYS(REG) (approximately
3.5 V), the battery FET is turned on fully and the battery is charged with the full programmed charge current set
by the I2C interface, I(CHARGE). The slew rate for fast charge current is controlled to minimize the current and
voltage over-shoot during transient. The charge current is regulated to I(CHARGE) until the battery is charged to the
regulation voltage. Once the battery voltage is close to the regulation voltage, V(BATREG), the charge current is
tapered down as shown in Figure 3 while the SYS output remains connected to the battery. The voltage
regulation feedback occurs by monitoring the battery-pack voltage between the BAT and PGND pins. The
V(BATREG) is targeted for single-cell voltage batteries and has an adjustable regulation voltage (3.5 V to 4.44 V)
programmed using the I2C interface
The devices monitor the charging current during the voltage regulation phase. Once the termination threshold,
I(TERM), is detected and the battery voltage is above the recharge threshold, the devices terminate charge and
turn off the battery charging FET and enters battery detection. If a battery is detection (See the Battery Detection
section), the devices enter charge done. The system output is regulated to the VSYS(REG) and supports the full
current available from the input and the battery supplement mode is available (see the Dynamic Power Path
Management section for more details). The termination current level is programmable. To disable the charge
current termination, the host sets the charge termination bit (TE) of charge control register to 0, see the to I2C
section for details.

2. V(USB) toggle
3. CE bit toggle or RESET bit is set
4. Hi-Z bit toggle
Battery Detection
When termination conditions are met, a battery detection cycle is started. During battery detection, I(DETECT) is
pulled from V(BAT) for t(DETECT) to verify there is a battery. If the battery voltage remains above V(DETECT) for the full
duration of t(DETECT), a battery is determined to present and the IC enters “Charge Done”. If V(BAT) falls below
V(DETECT), a “Battery Not Present” fault is signaled and battery detection continues. The next cycle of battery
detection, the bq24270 and bq24271 turn on I(BATSHRT) for t(DETECT). If V(BAT) rises to V(DETECT), the current source
is turned off and after t(DETECT), the battery detection continues through another current sink cycle. Battery
detection continues until charge is disabled or a battery is detected. Once a battery is detected, the fault status
clears and a new charge cycle begins. Battery detection is not run when termination is disabled.
Dynamic Power Path Management
The bq24270 and bq24271 feature a SYS output that powers the external system load connected to the battery.
This output is active whenever a source is connected to USB or BAT. The following sections discuss the
behavior of SYS with a source connected to the supply or a battery source only.
Input Source Connected
When a valid input source is connected, the buck converter turns on to power the load on SYS. The STAT/INT
show an interrupt with 128 µs pulse to tell the host that something has changed. The FAULT bits read normal,
and the Supply Status register shows that a new supply is connected. The CE bit (bit 1) in the control register
(0x02) determines whether a charge cycle is initiated. By default, the bq24270 and bq24271 (CE = 0) enable a
charge cycle when a valid input source is connected. When the CE bit is 1 and a valid input source is connected,
the battery FET is turned off and the SYS output is regulated to the VSYS(REG) programmed by the V(BATREG)
threshold in the I2C register. A charge cycle is initiated when the CE bit is written to a 0.

When the CE bit is a 0 and a valid source is connected to USB, the buck converter starts up and a charge cycle
is initiated. When V(BAT) is high enough that V(SYS) is > VSYS(REG), the battery FET is turned on and the SYS
output is connected to BAT. If the SYS voltage falls to VSYS(REG), it is regulated to that point to maintain the
system output even with a deeply discharged or absent battery. In this mode, the SYS output voltage is regulated
by the buck converter and the battery FET linearly regulates the charge current into the battery. The current from
the supply is shared between charging the battery and powering the system load at SYS. The dynamic power
path management (DPPM) circuitry of the devices monitor the current limits continuously and if the SYS voltage
falls to the V(MINSYS) voltage, it adjusts charge current to maintain the minimum system voltage and supply the
load on SYS. If the charge current is reduced to zero and the load increases further, the devices enter battery
supplement mode. During supplement mode, the battery FET is turned on and the battery supplements the
system load.
Figure 4. Example DPPM Response (V(Supply) =5V,V(BAT) = 3.1 V, 1.5 A Input Current Limit)
VBAT(REG) should never be programmed less than V(BAT). If the battery is ever 5% above the regulation threshold,
the battery OVP circuit shuts the PWM converter off and the battery FET is turned on to discharge the battery to
safe operating levels. Battery OVP errors are shown in the I2C status registers.
Battery Only Connected
When a battery voltage > V(BATUVLO) is connected with no input source, the battery FET is turned on similar to
supplement mode. In this mode, the current is not regulated; however, there is a short circuit current limit. If the
short circuit limit is reached, the battery FET is turned off for the deglitch time. After the deglitch time, the battery
FET is turned on to test and determine if the short has been removed. If it has not, the FET turns off and the
process repeats until the short is removed. This process is to protect the internal FET from over current. If an
external FET is used for discharge, the body diode prevents the load on SYS from being disconnected from the
battery. If the battery voltage is less than V(BATUVLO), the battery FET (Q3) remains off and BAT is high-
impedance. This prevents further discharging deeply discharged batteries.

Battery Discharge FET (BGATE)
The bq24270 and bq24271 contain a MOSFET driver to drive an external discharge FET between the battery
and the system output. This external FET provides a low impedance path when supplying the system from the
battery. Connect BGATE to the gate of the external discharge MOSFET. BGATE is on under the following
conditions:
1. No valid input supply connected.
2. 2. HZ_MODE = 1
DEFAULT Mode
DEFAULT mode is used when I2C communication is not available. DEFAULT mode is entered in the following
situations:
1. When the charger is enabled and V(BAT) < 3.6 V before I2C communication is established.
2. When the watchdog timer expires without a reset from the I2C interface and the safety timer has not expired.
3. When the devices comes out of any fault condition (sleep mode, OVP, faulty adapter mode, etc.) before I2C
communication is established.
In default mode, the I2C registers are reset to the default values. The 27 min safety timer is reset and starts when
DEFAULT mode is entered. The default value for V(BATREG) is 3.6V, and the default value for I(CHARGE) is 1 A. The
input current limit for the USB input is determined by the D+ and D- detection (bq24270) or PSEL (bq24271).
Default mode is exited by programming the I2C interface. Once I2C communication is established, PSEL has no
effect on the USB input. Note that if termination is enabled and charging has terminated, a new charge cycle is
NOT initiated when entering DEFAULT mode.
Safety Timer and Watchdog Timer
At the beginning of charging process, the bq24270 and bq24271 start the safety timer. This timer is active during
the entire charging process. If charging has not terminated before the safety timer expires, charging is halted and
the CE bit is written to a “1”. The length of the safety timer is selectable using the I2C interface. A single 128 μs
pulse is sent on the STAT and INT outputs and the STATx bits of the status registers are updated in the I2C. The
CE bit must be toggled in order to clear the safety timer fault. The safety timer duration is selectable using the
TMR_X bits in the Safety Timer Register/ NTC Monitor register. Changing the safety timer duration resets the
safety timer. If the safety timer expires, charging is disabled (CE changed to a 1”). This function prevents
continuous charging of a defective battery if the host fails to reset the safety timer.
In addition to the safety timer, the devices contain a watchdog timer that monitors the host through the I2C
interface. Once a read/write is performed on the I2C interface, a 30-second timer (tWATCHDOG) is started. The 30-
second timer is reset by the host using the I2C interface. This is done by writing a “1” to the reset bit (TMR_RST)
in the control register. The TMR_RST bit is automatically set to “0” when the 30-second timer is reset. This
process continues until battery is fully charged or the safety timer expires. If the 30-second timer expires, the IC
enters DEFAULT mode where the default register values are loaded, the safety timer restarts at 27 minutes and
charging continues. The I2C may be accessed again to reinitialize the desired values and restart the watchdog
timer as long as the 27 minute safety timer has not expired. The watchdog timer flow chart is shown in Figure 5.

D+ and D- Based Adapter Detection for the USB Input (D+ and D-, bq24270)
The bq24270 contains a D+ and D– based adapter detection circuit that is used to program the input current limit
for the USB input during DEFAULT mode. D+ and D– detection is only performed in DEFAULT mode unless
forced by the D+ and D– EN bit in host mode.
By default the USB input current limit is set to 100 mA. When USB is asserted the bq24270 performs a charger
source identification to determine if it is connected to an SDP (USB port) or CDP and DCP (dedicated charger).
When the detection is initiated, the first step is the connection detection as described in BC1.2. This step detects
when the D+ and D- lines are connected to the bq24270. Once this connection is made, the circuit moves to the
Primary Detection. If the connection detection has not completed within 500 ms, the D+ and D- detection selects
100 mA for the unknown input source. The primary detection complies with the method described in BC1.2.
During primary detection, the D+ and D- lines are tested to determine if the port is an SDP or CDP and DCP. If a
CDP and DCP is detected the input current limit is increased to 1.5 A, if an SDP is detected the current limit
remains at 100 mA, until changed via the I2C interface. Secondary detection is not performed.
Automatic detection is performed only if V(D+) and V(D–) are less than 0.6 V to avoid interfering with the USB
transceiver which may also perform D+ and D- detection when the system is running normally. However, D+ and
D– can be initiated at any time by the host by setting the D+ and D– EN bit in the Control/Battery Voltage
Register to 1. After detection is complete the D+ and D– EN bit is automatically reset to 0 and the detection
circuitry is disconnected from the D+ and D- pins to avoid interference with USB data transfer. When a command
is written to change the input current limit in the I2C, this overrides the current limit selected by D+/D- detection.
USB Input Current Limit Selector Input (PSEL, bq24271)
The bq24271 contains a PSEL input that is used to program the input current limit for USB during DEFAULT
mode. Drive PSEL high to indicate a USB source is connected to the USB input and program the 500 mA current
limit for USB. Drive PSEL low to indicate that an AC Adapter is connected to the )USB input. When PSEL is low,
the IC starts up with a 1.5 A current limit for USB. Once an I2C write is done, PSEL has no effect on the input
current limit until the watchdog timer expires.
Hardware Chip Disable Input (CD)
The bq24270 and bq24271 contain a CD input that is used to disable the IC and place the devices into high-
impedance mode. Drive CD low to enable charge and enter normal operation. Drive CD high to disable charge
and place the devices into high-impedance mode. Driving CD resets the safety timer.
LDO Output (DRV)
The bq24270 and bq24271 contain a linear regulator (DRV) that is used to supply the internal MOSFET drivers
and other circuitry. Additionally, DRV supplies up to 10mA external loads to power the STAT LED or the USB
transceiver circuitry. The maximum value of the DRV output is 5.45 V so it ideal for protecting voltage sensitive
USB circuits from high voltage fluctuations in the supply. The LDO is on whenever a supply is connected to the
USB input of the bq24270 and bq24271. The DRV is disabled under the following conditions:
1. V(USB) < UVLO
2. V(USB) < VSLP
3. Thermal Shutdown
4. OTG_LOCK bit set to '1'
External NTC Monitoring (TS)
The I2C interface allows the user to implement the JEITA standard for systems where the battery pack thermistor
is monitored by the host. Additionally, the bq24270 and bq24271 provide a flexible, voltage based TS input for
monitoring the battery pack NTC thermistor. The voltage at TS is monitored to determine that the battery is at a
safe temperature during charging. The devices enable the user to implement the JEITA. The JEITA specification
is shown in Figure 6.

Figure 6. Charge Current/Voltage During TS Conditions
To satisfy the JEITA requirements, four temperature thresholds are monitored; the cold battery threshold (TNTC <
0°C), the cool battery threshold (0°C < TNTC < 10°C) the warm battery threshold (45°C < TNTC < 60°C) and the
hot battery threshold (TNTC > 60°C). ). These temperatures correspond to the VCOLD, VCOOL, VWARM, and VHOT
thresholds. Charging is suspended and timers are suspended when VTS < VHOT or VTS > VCOLD. When VHOT <
VTS , VWARM the battery regulation voltage is reduced by 140 mV from the programmed regulation threshold.
When VCOOL < VTS < VCOLD, the charging current is reduced to half of the programmed charge current.
The TS function is voltage based for maximum flexibility. Connect a resistor divider from DRV to GND with TS
connected to the center tap to set the threshold. The connections are shown in Figure 7. The resistor values are
calculated using the following equations:

Where:
VCOLD = 0.6 x VDRV
VHOT = 0.3 v VDRV
Where RHOT is the NTC resistance at the hot temperature and RCOLD is the NTC resistance at cold
temperature.
For the bq24270 and bq24271, the WARM and COOL thresholds are not independently programmable. The
COOL and WARM NTC resistances for a selected resistor divider are calculated using the following equations:

If the TS function is not used, connect TS to DRV directly to disable the feature. Additionally, the TS function can
be disabled in the I2C by writing to the EN_TS bit. When the TS is disabled, the status registers always read
“Normal”.
Thermal Regulation and Protection
During the charging process, to prevent the IC from overheating, bq24270 and bq24271 monitor the junction
temperature, TJ, of the die and begins to taper down the charge current once TJreaches the thermal regulation
threshold, TREG. The charge current is reduced to zero when the junction temperature increases about 10°C
above TREG. Once the charge current is reduced, the system current is reduced while the battery supplements
the load to supply the system. This may cause a thermal shutdown of the devices if the die temperature rises too
high. At any state, if TJexceeds TSHTDWN, the devices suspend charging and disables the buck converter. During
thermal shutdown mode, PWM is turned off, and the timers are suspended, and a single 128 μs pulse is sent on
the STAT and INT outputs and the STATx and FAULT_x bits of the status registers are updated in the I2C. A
new charging cycle begins when TJfalls below TSHTDWN by approximately 10°C.
Input Voltage Protection in Charge Mode
Sleep Mode
The bq24270 and bq24271 enter the low-power sleep mode if the voltage on V(USB) falls below sleep-mode
entry threshold, V(BAT) + V(SLP), and V(VBUS) is higher than the undervoltage lockout threshold, VUVLO. This
feature prevents draining the battery during the absence of V(USB). When V(USB) < V(BAT) + V(SLP), the devices
turn off the PWM converter, turn on the battery FET, drive BGATE to GND, send a single 128 μs pulse on
the STAT and INT outputs, and update the STATx and FAULT_x bits in the status registers. Once V(USB) >
V(BAT)+ V(SLP), the STATx and FAULT_x bits are cleared and the devices initiate a new charge cycle.

Input Voltage Based DPM
During normal charging process, if the input power source is not able to support the programmed or default
charging current, the supply voltage deceases. Once the supply drops to VIN_DPM (default 4.2 V), the input
current limit is reduced down to prevent further supply droop. When the IC enters this mode, the charge
current is lower than the set value and the DPM_STATUS bit is set (Bit 5 in Register 05H). This feature
ensures IC compatibility with adapters with different current capabilities without a hardware change. Figure 8
shows the VIN-DPM behavior to a current limited source. In this figure, the input source has a 750 mA current
limit and the charging is set to 750 mA. The SYS load is then increased to 1.2 A.

Bad Source Detection
When a source is connected to USB, the bq24270 and bq24271 run a Bad Source Detection procedure to
determine if the source is strong enough to provide some current to charge the battery. A current sink is
turned on (30 mA) for 32 ms. If the source is valid after the 32 ms (V(BAD_SOURCE) < V(USB) < V(OVP)), the buck
converter starts up and normal operation continues. If the supply voltage falls below V(BAD_SOURCE) during the
detection, the current sink shuts off for 2s and then retries. The detection circuits retries, a single 128 μs
pulse is sent on the STAT and INT outputs, and the STATx and FAULT_x bits of the status registers and the
battery/supply status registers are updated in the I2C. The detection circuits retries continuously until either a
new source is connected to the other input or a valid source is detected after the detection time. If during
normal operation the source falls to V(BAD_SOURCE), the devices turn off the PWM converter, turn on the
battery FET and BGATE, send a single 128 μs pulse on the STAT and INT outputs, and the STATx and
FAULT_x bits of the status registers and the battery/supply status registers are updated in the I2C. Once a
good source is detected, the STATx and FAULT_x bits are cleared and the devices return to normal
operation
Input Overvoltage Protection
The bq24270 and bq24271 provide overvoltage protection on the input that protects downstream circuitry.
The built-in input overvoltage protection to protect the devices and other components against damage from
overvoltage on the input supply (Voltage from V(USB) or VIN to PGND). During normal operation, if V(USB) >
V(OVP), the devices turn off the PWM converter, turns the battery FET and BGATE on, sends a single 128 μs
pulse is sent on the STAT and INT outputs and the STATx and FAULT_x bits of the status registers and the
battery and supply status registers are updated in the I2C. Once the OVP fault is removed, the STATx and
FAULT_x bits are cleared and the devices return to normal operation.

Charge Status Outputs (STAT, INT)
The STAT output is used to indicate operation conditions for bq24270 and bq24271. STAT is pulled low during
charging when EN_STAT bit in the control register (0x02h) is set to “1”. When charge is complete or disabled,
STAT is high impedance. When a fault occurs, a 128-µs pulse (interrupt) is sent out to notify the host. The status
of STAT during different operation conditions is summarized in Table 1. STAT drives an LED for visual indication
or can be connected to the logic rail for host communication. The EN_STAT bit in the control register (00H) is
used to enable/disable the charge status for STAT. The interrupt pulses are unaffected by EN_STAT and will
always be shown. The INT output is identical to STAT and is used to interface with a low voltage host processor

The bq24270 and bq24271 contain a good battery monitor circuit that places the devices into high-z mode if the
battery voltage is above the BATGD threshold while in DEFAULT mode. This function is used to enable
compliance to the battery charging standard that prevents charging from an un-enumerated USB host while the
battery is above the good battery threshold. If the devices are in HOST mode, it is assumed that USB host has
been enumerated and the good battery circuit has no effect on charging.
SERIAL INTERFACE DESCRIPTION
The bq24270 and bq24271 use an I2C compatible interface to program charge parameters. I2C is a 2-wire serial
interface developed by Philips Semiconductor (see I2C-Bus Specification, Version 2.1, January 2000). The bus
consists of a data line (SDA) and a clock line (SCL) with pull-up structures. When the bus is idle, both SDA and
SCL lines are pulled high. All the I2C compatible devices connect to the I2C bus through open drain I/O pins,
SDA and SCL. A master device, usually a microcontroller or a digital signal processor, controls the bus. The
master is responsible for generating the SCL signal and device addresses. The master also generates specific
conditions that indicate the START and STOP of data transfer. A slave device receives and/or transmits data on
the bus under control of the master device.
The devices work as a slave and support the following data transfer modes, as defined in the I2C Bus
Specification: standard mode (100 kbps) and fast mode (400 kbps). The interface adds flexibility to the battery
charging solution, enabling most functions to be programmed to new values depending on the instantaneous
application requirements. Register contents remain intact as long as battery voltage remains above 2.5 V
(typical). The I2C circuitry is powered from V(BUS) when a supply is connected. If the V(BUS) supply is not
connected, the I2C circuitry is powered from the battery through BAT. The battery voltage must stay above 2.5 V
with no input connected in order to maintain proper operation
The data transfer protocol for standard and fast modes is exactly the same; therefore, they are referred to as the
F/S-mode in this document. The devices only support 7-bit addressing. The 7-bit address is defined as ‘1101011’
(6Bh).
F/S Mode Protocol
The master initiates data transfer by generating a start condition. The start condition is when a high-to-low
transition occurs on the SDA line while SCL is high, as shown in Figure 9. All I2C - compatible devices should
recognize a start condition.

Figure 9. START and STOP Condition
The master then generates the SCL pulses, and transmits the 8-bit address and the read/write direction bit R/W
on the SDA line. During all transmissions, the master ensures that data is valid. A valid data condition requires
the SDA line to be stable during the entire high period of the clock pulse (see Figure 10). All devices recognize
the address sent by the master and compare it to their internal fixed addresses. Only the slave device with a
matching address generates an acknowledge (see Figure 11) by pulling the SDA line low during the entire high
period of the ninth SCL cycle. Upon detecting this acknowledge, the master knows that communication link with a
slave has been established.
Figure 10. Bit Transfer on the Serial Interface
The master generates further SCL cycles to either transmit data to the slave (R/W bit 1) or receive data from the
slave (R/W bit 0). In either case, the receiver needs to acknowledge the data sent by the transmitter. So an
acknowledge signal can either be generated by the master or by the slave, depending on which one is the
receiver. The 9-bit valid data sequences consisting of 8-bit data and 1-bit acknowledge can continue as long as
necessary. To signal the end of the data transfer, the master generates a stop condition by pulling the SDA line
from low to high while the SCL line is high (see Figure 12). This releases the bus and stops the communication
link with the addressed slave. All I2C compatible devices must recognize the stop condition. Upon the receipt of a
stop condition, all devices know that the bus is released, and wait for a start condition followed by a matching
address. If a transaction is terminated prematurely, the master needs sending a STOP condition to prevent the
slave I2C logic from remaining in an incorrect state. Attempting to read data from register addresses not listed in
this section result in FFh being read out.

OTG_LOCK Bit (USB Lockout)
The OTG_LOCK bit is used to prevent any charging from USB. For systems using OTG supplies, it is not
desirable to charge from an OTG source. Doing so would mean draining the battery by allowing it to effectively
charge itself. Write a “1” to OTG_LOCK to lock out the USB input. Write a “0” to OTG_LOCK to return to normal
operation. The watchdog timer must be reset while in USB_LOCK to maintain the USB lockout state. This
prevents the USB input from being permanently locked out for cases where the host loses I2C communication
with OTG_LOCK set (i.e. discharged battery from OTG operation). See the Safety Timer and Watchdog Timer
section for more details.
EN_NOBATOP (No Battery Operation with Termination Disabled
The EN_NOBATOP bit is used to enable operation when termination is disabled and no battery is connected.
This is useful for cases where the PA is connected to the BAT pin and it desired to do a calibration in the factory.
For this application, the TE bit (Bit 2 in Register 0x02h) should be set to a “0” to disable termination and the
EN_NOBATOP should be set to a “1”. This feature should not be used during normal operation as it disables the
BATOVP and the reverse boost protection circuits.

The RESET bit in the control register (0x02h) is used to reset all the charge parameters. Write “1” to RESET bit
to reset all the registers to default values and place the bq24270 and bq24271 into DEFAULT mode and turn off
the watchdog timer. The RESET bit is automatically cleared to zero once the devices enter DEFAULT mode.
CE Bit (Charge Enable
The CE bit in the control register (0x02h) is used to disable or enable the charge process. A low logic level (0) on
this bit enables the charge and a high logic level (1) disables the charge. When charge is disabled, the SYS
output regulates to VSYS(REG) and battery is disconnected from the SYS. Supplement mode is still available if
the system load demands cannot be met by the supply. BGATE is high impedance when CE is high.
HZ_MODE Bit (High Impedance Mode Enable
The HZ_MODE bit in the control register (0x02h) is used to disable or enable the high impedance mode. A low
logic level (0) on this bit enables the IC and a high logic level (1) puts the IC in a low quiescent current state
called high impedance mode. When in high impedance mode, the converter is off and the battery FET and
BGATE are on. The load on SYS is supplied by the battery.

LOW_CHG Bit (Low Charge Mode Enable)
The LOW_CHG bit is used to reduce the charge current from the programmed value. This feature is used by
systems where battery NTC is monitored by the host and requires a reduced charge current setting or by
systems that need a “preconditioning” current for low battery voltages. Write a “1” to this bit to charge at half of
the programmed charge current. Write a “0” to this bit to charge at the programmed charge current.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Output Inductor and Capacitor Selection Guidelines
When selecting an inductor, several attributes must be examined to find the right part for the application. First,
the inductance value should be selected. The bq24270 and bq24271 are designed to work with 1.5 µH to 2.2 µH
inductors. The chosen value will have an effect on efficiency and package size. Due to the smaller current ripple,
some efficiency gain is reached using the 2.2 µH inductor, however, due to the physical size of the inductor, this
may not be a viable option. The 1.5 µH inductor provides a good tradeoff between size and efficiency.
Once the inductance has been selected, the peak current must be calculated in order to choose the current
rating of the inductor. Use Equation 5 to calculate the peak current.
(5)
The inductor selected must have a saturation current rating less than or equal to the calculated IPEAK. Due to the
high currents possible with the devices, a thermal analysis must also be done for the inductor. Many inductors
have 40°C temperature rise rating. This is the DC current that will cause a 40°C temperature rise above the
ambient temperature in the inductor. For this analysis, the typical load current may be used adjusted for the duty
cycle of the load transients. For example, if the application requires a 1.5 A DC load with peaks at 2.5 A 20% of
the time, a Δ40°C temperature rise current must be greater than 1.7 A:
ITEMPRISE = ILOAD + D × (IPEAK ILOAD) = 1.5 A + 0.2 × (2.5 A 1.5 A) = 1.7 A (6)
The devices provide internal loop compensation. Using this scheme, the bq24270 is stable with 10 µF to 200 µF
of local capacitance. The capacitance on the SYS rail can be higher if distributed amongst the rail. To reduce the
output voltage ripple, a ceramic capacitor with the capacitance between 10µF and 47µF is recommended for
local bypass to SYS.
PCB Layout Guidelines
It is important to pay special attention to the PCB layout. Figure 13 provides a sample layout for the high current
paths of the bq24270 and bq24271.

SLUSB10 JUNE 2012
The following provides some guidelines:
To obtain optimal performance, the power input capacitors, connected from the PMID input to PGND, must be
placed as close as possible to the bq24270 and bq24271
Place 4.7 µF input capacitor as close to PMID pin and PGND pin as possible to make high frequency current
loop area as small as possible. Place 1µF input capacitor GNDs as close to the respective PMID cap GND
and PGND pins as possible to minimize the ground difference between the input and PMID.
The local bypass capacitor from SYS to GND should be connected between the SYS pin and PGND of the
IC. The intent is to minimize the current path loop area from the SW pin through the LC filter and back to the
PGND pin.
Place all decoupling capacitor close to their respective IC pin and as close as to PGND (do not place
components such that routing interrupts power stage currents). All small control signals should be routed
away from the high current paths.
The PCB should have a ground plane (return) connected directly to the return of all components through vias
(two vias per capacitor for power-stage capacitors, one via per capacitor for small-signal components). It is
also recommended to put vias inside the PGND pads for the IC, if possible. A star ground design approach is
typically used to keep circuit block currents isolated (high-power/low-power small-signal) which reduces noise-
coupling and ground-bounce issues. A single ground plane for this design gives good results. With this small
layout and a single ground plane, there is no ground-bounce issue, and having the components segregated
minimizes coupling between signals.
The high-current charge paths into USB, BAT, SYS and from the SW pins must be sized appropriately for the
maximum charge current in order to avoid voltage drops in these traces. The PGND pins should be
connected to the ground plane to return current through the internal low-side FET.
For high-current applications, the balls for the power paths should be connected to as much copper in the
board as possible. This allows better thermal performance as the board pulls heat away from the IC.

Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)
(3) MSL, Peak Temp. -- The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.

harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
