Barry Brent, Field Application Engineer in the Circuit Protection Division of TE Connectivity talks about battery protection such as battery cell protection and battery pack protection. A brief ...

Low resistance, thermally responsive polymeric positive temperature coefficient (PPTC) devices are a practical choice for improving Li chemistry-based cell or pack performance, without sacrificing ...

The simplest protection method for battery packs is a fuse that opens if the system draws excessively high current. A more complex protection circuit is found in some battery packs. The ...

Intended for high power, Li-ion-based products, a battery management and protection IC can handle peak currents in tens of amps as well as monitoring the battery pack to ensure cells are balanced and ...
