Hardware Chip Disable Input (CD)
The bq24272 contain a CD input pin that is used to disable the IC and place the bq24272 into high-impedance
mode. Drive CD low to enable charge and enter normal operation. Drive CD high to disable charge and place the
bq24272 into high-impedance mode. Driving CD high during DEFAULT mode resets the safety timer. Driving CD
high during HOST mode resets the safety timer.
LDO Output (DRV)
The bq24272 contains a linear regulator (DRV) that is used to supply the internal MOSFET drivers and other
circuitry. Additionally, DRV supplies up to 10mA external loads to power the STAT LED or the USB transceiver
circuitry. The maximum value of the DRV output is 5.45V so it ideal for protecting voltage sensitive USB circuits
from high voltage fluctuations in the supply. The LDO is on whenever a supply is connected to the IN input of the
bq24272. The DRV is disabled under the following conditions:
