Design methodology of the rechargeable battery protection IC for low-power implementation

2차 전지 보호회로의 저전력 설계 기법

A protection integrated circuit which enables the stable operation of the rechargeable battery should be designed with a low-power architecture because it consumes the power of the battery. This paper proposed a low-power scheme especially when the several series-connected batteries are provided. By adopting a time sharing control of the batteries, the chip size and power consumption could be reduced.
