CHIBA, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ABLIC Inc. (hereinafter “ABLIC”), a semiconductor manufacturer, launched the S-8255A/B Series, a monitoring IC for 3- to 5-serial cell batteries.
The new product, the S-8255A/B Series has the following features. (1) In addition to common overcharge and overdischarge protection functionalities, it also provides temperature protection to enable configuration of circuits offering even greater safety. (2) A power-saving function prevents dark current from causing loss of battery pack capacity during shipping. (3) An overcharge detection voltage accuracy of ±20mV and a low power consumption of 19uA max. despite high performance place it among the top performers in the industry.
The switching pins can be used to extend protection to 3, 4 or 5 serial cells. The cascade function of the S-8255A Series allows you to configure protection circuits comprising six or more cells to accommodate a wide variety of applications.
Major Features
1. Temperature protection function that
monitors four types of temperatures
2. Power-saving function
eliminates depletion caused by dark current
3. The accuracy
of overcharge detection voltage is ±20mV; power consumption is 19μA max.
despite high performance
Application Examples
- Power tools, cordless vacuum
cleaners, robot vacuum cleaners, drones, ESSs, UPSs, industrial devices,
etc.
