Protect your battery
Reliable battery protection with advanced precision and integration
Battery protection IC detects a variety of fault conditions such as overvoltage, under-voltage, discharge overcurrent, and short circuit, and range from simple (OV only) to advanced (more faults detected). Battery protection is a requirement for any lithium based chemistries; our battery protection portfolio can help you get started.
Single-cell primary
Battery protectors for single cell battery packs such as smartphones and wearables capable of protecting against voltage, current, and temperature faults and auto-recovering by opening & closing FETs.
Multi-cell primary
Battery protectors for multi cell battery packs such as power tools and vacuum cleaners capable of protecting against voltage, current, and temperature faults and auto-recovering by opening & closing FETs with stacking and cell balancing built in.
Second-level protectors
Battery protectors for single up to multiple cells stacked meant to drive a fuse for permanent failure or redundant protection.
Charger front-end
Charger front end protectors sit between the charger and the wall adapter or power supply to protect your system against high voltage transients in single cell applications.
