Texas Instruments bq25960 Parallel Battery Charger is a 98.1% peak efficiency, 8A battery charging solution using switch capacitor architecture for a 1-cell Li-ion battery. The switched cap architecture allows the cable current to be half the charging current, reducing the cable power...

Analog Devices Inc. LTC3337 Primary Battery State of Health (SOH) Monitor provides accurate, real-time readings of battery cell discharge, voltage, impedance, and temperature. The LTC3337 is designed to be placed in series with a primary battery with minimal associated series voltage...

A universal problem in battery-operated devices is the threat of damage when an end-user (never an engineer) inserts the battery backward. You can avoid damage by inserting a single diode or by using a diode-bridge configuration, but those fixes waste power and reduce the supply voltage...

(CATL) successfully held its first online launch event “Tech Zone” on July 29. Dr. Robin Zeng, chairman of CATL, unveiled the company’s first-generation sodium-ion battery, together with its AB battery pack solution - which is able to integrate sodium-ion cells and lithium-ion...

The need for efficiency, speed, accuracy, and consistency in hardware design, in recent times, has spurred on the development of several AI systems that take in boundary parameters and return specifications, designs, and architectures to system designers. One of such tools is the...

Maxim MAX77301 Lithium-ion Linear Battery Charger is JEITA-compliant and operates from a USB port, a dedicated charger, or a universal adapter. The IC provides automatic adapter-type detection and enumeration with a USB host or hub. The IC integrates an independent battery charge...

California-based Embedded electronics solutions manufacturer; EZBriz, recently announced the launch of their Battery management board; the Lithium Battery BMS. Battery management systems, in their advanced states, are electronic systems/devices that manages rechargeable batteries...

This demonstration circuit is an active rectifier with reverse protection for batteries in automotive applications. The project is designed for 5A load current. Two clamping diodes, D1 and D2, are used on the board to protect the IC from overvoltage spikes at the input. The input supply...
