An Exhibitor Seminar Session discussing a 100V FET driver will be hosted by Mouser Electronics and Texas Instruments at APEC 2016 (March 20-24) in Long Beach, California. On Tuesday March 22, Allen Y. Chen, Product Marketing and Applications Manager, from TI’s Battery Management Solutions – Monitoring and Protection will present Big Batteries: Take a Walk on the High Side with TI’s 100V FET Driver, an in-depth look at consumers’ increasing desire for advanced high-voltage power protection and control.

Drones, cordless robotics, energy storage systems, and light electric vehicles all share one key thing in common: They rely on big batteries, and consumers expect a premium product to match the premium price tag.

TI’s new bq76200 is the first high-side battery FET driver for such high-voltage battery applications, offering incredible flexibility to battery pack designers looking for robust, low-power protection FET control.

The bq76200 eliminates the struggles associated with building complicated, reliability-constrained discrete charge-pump circuits to achieve a high-side FET drive, and is a perfect complement to many of TI’s existing battery monitors and companion fuel gauges.

It gives designers the best of all worlds: a truly intelligent battery, capable of collaborating with a system 24/7 while maintaining protection and ensuring longevity.
