Battery-Operated Power Tools

High-voltage multicell battery packs support high-power applications (such as power tools) with high current drain when in use, highly intermittent use cycles, and physical separation between battery and motor.

In these applications, a microcontroller or microprocessor controls the motor. This microcontroller must be powered with a low-voltage rail coming from the high-voltage, multicell battery pack; as mentioned previously, powering this microcontroller or microprocessor from an intermediate voltage from the multicell array causes battery-pack life degradation or added system complexity because of cell balancing issues. In addition, this microcontroller or microprocessor must be protected from the high-voltage transients because of the motor inductance.

The TPS7A16-Q1 can be used to power the motor-controlled microcontroller or microprocessor; the device low quiescent current maximizes battery shelf life, and very high-voltage capabilities simplify system complexity by replacing voltage suppression filters, thus lowering system cost.
