Texas Instruments provides a recommended layout and placement guide in the application note SLUA444, which includes guidelines for component placement, routing, and thermal management to ensure optimal performance and minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
The BQ24073RGTTG4 has a programmable charging profile, and Texas Instruments provides a charging profile optimization tool, the bq2407x Charging Profile Optimization Tool, which allows you to customize the charging profile for your specific battery chemistry and application requirements.
While the datasheet specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, the maximum ambient temperature range for the BQ24073RGTTG4 depends on the specific application and thermal design. Texas Instruments recommends consulting the thermal design guidelines in the application note SLUA444 to ensure the device operates within a safe temperature range.
Yes, the BQ24073RGTTG4 can be used with battery packs that have multiple cells in series. However, you will need to use an external balancing circuit to ensure that each cell is charged and discharged evenly. Texas Instruments provides guidance on designing a balancing circuit in the application note SLUA445.
The BQ24073RGTTG4 has built-in OVP and UVP features, but you will need to add external components to implement these features. Texas Instruments provides guidance on implementing OVP and UVP in the application note SLUA446, including component selection and circuit design guidelines.
