BQ24261RGET

Battery Chargers Overview

The BQ24261RGET is a host-controlled, single-input, single-cell switchmode Li-Ion battery charger manufactured by Texas Instruments. It supports an input voltage range of 4.2 V to 30 V and delivers a programmable output current up to 3 A. The device features power-path management and USB-OTG support for portable applications. It operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C and is housed in a VQFN-24 package.

Battery Chargers Feature Summary

• Integrates power-path management to optimize system power distribution between the input source and the battery load.
• Provides USB-On-The-Go (OTG) functionality to enable the device to act as a USB host for peripheral devices.
• Supports host-controlled operation via digital interface for flexible configuration of charging parameters.

Battery Chargers Applications

• Portable computing devices requiring high-voltage adapter compatibility
• Industrial equipment with wide-range DC input supplies
• Battery-powered systems utilizing USB-OTG connectivity

Battery Chargers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to potential counterfeits. Confirm RoHS compliance status and humidity sensitivity handling requirements during storage and assembly. Check for end-of-life notifications or discontinuance alerts prior to final design approval to ensure long-term supply stability.

Battery Chargers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring input voltages exceeding standard USB levels while maintaining compact form factors. Ensure the application necessitates host-controlled configuration rather than autonomous operation. Verify that the thermal performance of the VQFN-24 package meets the specific PCB layout constraints.

Battery Chargers Part Context

This part belongs to the BQ2426x family of single-cell switchmode chargers. It shares functional similarities with the BQ24261M but differs in packaging and specific pinout configurations. The RGET suffix indicates a specific reel-based tape and reel packaging format suitable for automated surface-mount assembly processes.

Battery Chargers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include BQ24261RGER and BQ24261YFFR, which share identical electrical specifications and functionality. Cross-referencing with the BQ24261MEVM-691 evaluation module may assist in validating equivalent performance characteristics during prototyping phases.
