Renesas Electronics RAA489255 Battery Front End
Renesas Electronics RAA489255 Battery Front End is a low-cost 3- to 5-cell battery monitor that measures voltage/temperature and communicates this to an MCU for battery management. The device includes a current monitor and a 5-pin LED driver direct from the battery voltage to enable a low-cost state-of-charge display. The hot-plug tolerant Renesas RAA489255 also features 100mV current wake-up detection and open cell/wire detection.Features
- Designed for use with MCU as a battery front end for higher safety BMS
- Optimizes integration for very low cost
- Voltage, temperature measurements, current sense, open wire detection, and built-in LED drive direct from Vbat
- Design and package engineering choices emphasize cost optimization
- Sample solution code accelerates design time
- Renesas is developing an Arm®-based solution code that can serve as a complete ready-to-go solution or a starting point for code development to save pack design time
- Code will be RA and FSP compatible
- Simple operation
- Minimal use of complex internal state machines makes part understanding easier
