I was looking for 2-4 cell li-ion chargers like the Texas Instruments' BQ25798 [datasheet] and many others of this class.
They advertise that the IC can charge 1-4 cells, but balance charging is nowhere mentioned in its datasheet. From what I know, it is terribly unsafe to charge series li-ion cells without balancing. So what exactly is the BQ25798 offering?
Could it be that they leave the battery balancing for another IC like the Texas Instruments' bq29330 [datasheet]? Is that how it's done for multi-cell devices in production? Please point me in the right direction.
Thank you.
