The LTC6804HG-2#TRPBF belongs to the category of integrated circuits (ICs) specifically designed for battery monitoring and balancing applications.
This product is primarily used in battery management systems (BMS) to monitor and balance the voltage levels of individual battery cells within a battery pack. It ensures optimal performance and longevity of the battery pack by preventing overcharging or undercharging of individual cells.
The LTC6804HG-2#TRPBF is available in a surface-mount 48-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package) package. It is typically sold in reels containing a specified quantity of ICs.
The LTC6804HG-2#TRPBF features a 48-pin SSOP package with the following pin configuration:
The LTC6804HG-2#TRPBF operates by measuring the voltage of each battery cell using its high-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). It then compares these measurements to predefined thresholds to detect any abnormalities or imbalances. If imbalances are detected, the IC activates the balancing circuitry to redistribute charge among the cells, equalizing their voltages.
The communication interface allows the LTC6804HG-2#TRPBF to transmit the measured data and receive control signals from an external microcontroller or BMS controller. This enables real-time monitoring and control of the battery pack.
The LTC6804HG-2#TRPBF is widely used in various applications that require battery management, including:
