BQ76952

The BQ76952 device is a highly integrated, high-accuracy battery monitor and protector for 3-series to 16-series Li-Ion, Li-Polymer, and LiFePO4 battery packs. The device includes a high-accuracy monitoring system, a highly configurable protection subsystem, and support for autonomous or host controlled cell balancing. Integration includes high-side charge-pump NFET drivers, dual programmable LDOs for external system use, and a host communication peripheral supporting 400-kHz I2C, SPI, and HDQ one-wire standards. The BQ76952 device is available in a 48-pin TQFP package.

BQ77216

The BQ77216 family of products provides a range of voltage and temperature monitoring including overvoltage (OVP), undervoltage (UVP), open wire (OW), and overtemperature (OT) protection for li-ion battery pack systems. Each cell is monitored independently for overvoltage, undervoltage, and open-wire conditions. With the addition of an external NTC thermistor, the device can detect overtemperature conditions. In the BQ77216 device, an internal delay timer is initiated upon detection of an overvoltage, undervoltage, open-wire, or overtemperature condition. Upon expiration of the delay timer, the respective output is triggered into its active state (either high or low, depending on the configuration). The overvoltage triggers the COUT pin if a fault is detected, and undervoltage triggers the DOUT pin if a fault is detected. If an overtemperature or open-wire fault is detected, then both the DOUT and COUT will be triggered. For quicker production-line testing, the BQ77216 device provides a Customer Test Mode (CTM) with greatly reduced delay time.

LM5163

The LM5163 synchronous buck converter is designed to regulate over a wide input voltage range, minimizing the need for external surge suppression components. A minimum controllable on-time of 50 ns facilitates large step-down conversion ratios, enabling the direct step-down from a 48-V nominal input to low-voltage rails for reduced system complexity and solution cost. The LM5163 operates during input voltage dips as low as 6 V, at nearly 100% duty cycle if needed, making it an excellent choice for wide input supply range industrial and high cell count battery pack applications. With integrated high-side and low-side power MOSFETs, the LM5163 delivers up to 0.5-A of output current. A constant on-time (COT) control architecture provides nearly constant switching frequency with excellent load and line transient response. Additional features of the LM5163 include ultra-low IQ and diode emulation mode operation for high light-load efficiency, innovative peak and valley overcurrent protection, integrated VCC bias supply and bootstrap diode, precision enable and input UVLO, and thermal shutdown protection with automatic recovery. The LM5163 is available in a thermally-enhanced, 8- pin SO PowerPAD™ package.

TCAN1044V

The TCAN1044V is a high speed controller area network (CAN) transceiver that meets the physical layer requirements of the ISO 11898-2:2016 high-speed CAN specification. The TCAN1044V transceiver supports both classical CAN and CAN FD networks up to 8 megabits per second (Mbps). The TCAN1044V includes internal logic level translation via the VIO terminal to allow for interfacing the transceiver IOs directly to 1.8-V, 2.5-V, 3.3-V, or 5-V logic IOs. The transceiver has a low-power standby mode which supports remote wake-up via the ISO 11898-2:2016 defined wake-up pattern (WUP). The TCAN1044V transceiver also include many protection and diagnostic features including thermal-shutdown (TSD), TXD-dominant time-out (DTO), supply under-voltage detection, and bus fault protection up to ±58 V.

TCAN1042HV

This CAN transceiver family meets the ISO11898-2 (2016) High Speed CAN (Controller Area Network) physical layer standard. All devices are designed for use in CAN FD networks up to 2 Mbps (megabits per second). Devices with part numbers that include the "G" suffix are designed for data rates up to 5 Mbps, and versions with the "V" have a secondary power supply input for I/O level shifting the input pin thresholds and RXD output level. This family has a low power standby mode with remote wake request feature. Additionally, all devices include many protection features to enhance device and network robustness.

MSP430FR2155

MSP430FR215x micro-controller (MCUs) is part of the MSP430TM MCU value line portfolio of ultra-low power low-cost devices for sensing and measurement applications. The device includes a 12-channels 12- bit ADC and two comparators. The MSP430FR215x supports an extended temperature range from –40° up to 105°C, so higher temperature industrial applications can benefit from the FRAM data-logging capabilities of the device. The extended temperature range allows developers to meet requirements of applications such as smoke detectors, sensor transmitters, and circuit breakers. The MSP430FR215x features a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and a constant generator that contribute to maximum code efficiency. The digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) allows the device to wake up from low-power modes to active mode typically in less than 10 μs. The MSP430 ultra-low-power (ULP) FRAM microcontroller platform combines uniquely embedded FRAM and a holistic ultra-low-power system architecture, allowing system designers to increase performance while lowering energy consumption. FRAM technology combines the low-energy fast writes, flexibility, and endurance of RAM with the nonvolatile behavior of flash. MSP430FR215x is supported by an extensive hardware and software ecosystem with reference designs and code examples to get your design started quickly.

TLV704

The TLV704 series of low-dropout (LDO) regulators are ultra-low quiescent current devices designed for extremely power-sensitive applications. Quiescent current is virtually constant over the complete load current and ambient temperature range. These devices are an ideal power-management attachment to low-power microcontrollers, such as the MSP430. The TLV704 operates over a wide operating input voltage of 2.5 V to 24 V. Thus, the device is an excellent choice for both battery-powered systems as well as industrial applications that undergo large line transients. The TLV704 is available in a 3-mm × 3-mm SOT23-5 package, which is ideal for cost-effective board manufacturing.

TMP61

The TMP61 linear thermistor offers linearity and consistent sensitivity across temperature to enable simple and accurate methods for temperature conversion. The low power consumption and a small thermal mass of the device minimize the impact of self-heating. With built-in fail-safe behaviors at high temperatures and powerful immunity to environmental variation, these devices are designed for a long lifetime of high performance. The small size of the TMP6 series also allows for close placement to heat sources and quick response times. Take advantage of benefits over NTC thermistors such as no extra linearization circuitry, minimized calibration, less resistance tolerance variation, larger sensitivity at high temperatures, and simplified conversion methods to save time and memory in the processor. The TMP61 is currently available in a 0402 footprint, a 0603 footprint and a 2-pin through-hole TO-92S package.
