Battery Management

Lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries require extremely accurate charging current and output voltages to optimize battery life and performance. To address this need, Freescale has a family of battery charger ICs designed to provide the industry's highest performance and accuracy, as well as exceptional configuration flexibility.
Freescale's battery charger ICs offer output voltage accuracy of +/-0.4 percent over temperature and charging current accuracy of +/-5 percent over temperature. The ICs can be customized to create hundreds of configurations to address a wide range of portable and ultramobile device needs. A designer can select features and specifications, such as pin-out, feature set, charging parameters and LED indication, and Freescale can deliver customized charger ICs by programming them at the end of the manufacturing process.

Freescale's battery sensor ICs offer superior voltage, current and temperature measurement accuracy. They are designed to minimize power consumption without compromising accuracy or data processing capabilities. These ICs are fully automotive qualified, which make them ideal for in-vehicle battery monitoring applications.
