1.1-A, Single-Input, Single-Cell, Li-Ion Battery Charger
With 50-mA LDO and 2.3-A Production Test Support
This user's guide describes the bq25040 evaluation module (EVM), how to setup the EVM to perform a
stand-alone evaluation or interface with a system or host. The charger is designed to deliver up to 1.1 A of
continuous current to the battery output in the adapter mode, ISET, or current limits the input to either 100
mA or 500 mA when in USB100/500 modes. The charge is programmed from the factory for 0.51 A in
ISET mode. In the Protection Test Support (PTS) mode, the battery output is capable of delivering > 2.3 A
of current for short pulses. The LDO regulator output can deliver up to 50 mA of current.
