Texas Instruments bq2597x 8A Battery Charger

Texas Instruments bq2597x 8A Battery Charger is a 97% efficient 8A battery charging solution using a switched cap architecture. This architecture and the integrated FETs are optimized to enable a 50% duty cycle, allowing the cable current to be half the current delivered to the battery. This feature reduces the losses over the charging cable and limits the temperature rise in the application. The dual-phase architecture reduces the input cap requirements and output voltage ripple. When used with a standard charger such as the Texas Instruments bq2589x, the system enables fast charging at the lowest power loss from pre-charge through CC, CV, and termination.
