3 Description

The bq25703A is a synchronous NVDC battery buckboost

charge controller, offering low component

count, high efficiency solution for space-constraint,

multi-chemistry battery charging applications.

The NVDC-1 configuration allows the system to be

regulated at battery voltage, but not drop below

system minimum voltage. The system keeps

operating even when the battery is completely

discharged or removed. When load power exceeds

input source rating, the battery goes into supplement

mode and prevents the system from crashing.

The bq25703A charges battery from a wide range of

input sources including USB adapter, high voltage

USB PD sources and traditional adapters.
