PRODUCTION DATA.
The bq24193 supports boost converter operation to deliver power from the battery to other portable devices through USB port. The boost mode output current rating meets the USB On-The-Go 500-mA output requirement. The maximum output current is 1.3 A. The boost operation can be enabled if the following conditions are valid:
In boost mode, the bq24193 employs a 1.5-MHz step-up switching regulator. Similar to buck operation, the device switches from PWM operation to PFM operation at light load to improve efficiency.
During boost mode, the status register REG08[7:6] is set to 11, the VBUS output is 5 V and the output current can reach up to 500 mA or 1.3 A, selected via I2C (REG01[0]).
Any fault during boost operation, including VBUS over-voltage or over-current, sets the fault register REG09[6] to 1 and an INT is asserted.
