The bq2431x evaluation module is a complete charger module for evaluating a charger front-end protection and charger solution using the bq2431x and bq24080 devices. It is designed to deliver up to 700 mA of charge current to Li-ion or Li-polymer applications. The charger front-end protection current is designed to 1000 mA. The bq2431x protects the charging system against three types of failures: input overvoltage when the AC adapter fails to regulate its voltage; load overcurrent when failures such as a short circuit occur in the charging system; and battery overcharge.
