Thanks. I'll try the ADP5588. The reason why I don't want to use Teensy or any other usb solution is that I will most likely be using my project with Beaglebone's integrated battery charging features. Therefore I wont have USB host. I plan on trying to get usb host working on batteries by connecting a boost regulator from the 3.3v rail to pins 2&3 of U8(which regulates power for usb host) but even still usb host is a bonus and not a requirement for my project.
