PT6304 4-Series Li-ion / Li-Polymer Battery Protection Chip - GSMicro Original Stock & Technical Solutions
PT6304 by CRMicrorobot is a high-performance protection chip designed specifically for 4-series lithium-ion / lithium-polymer battery packs. Supported with technical expertise by GSMicro (GSMicro Semiconductor), this chip integrates high-precision voltage detection circuitry and comprehensive protection features, effectively preventing battery damage or lifespan degradation caused by overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, short-circuit, and abnormal temperature conditions. Its compact TSSOP-16 package and minimal external component requirements make it an ideal choice for high-density battery packs in power tools, energy storage power supplies, and more.
Core Advantages
High-Precision Protection: Overcharge detection voltage accuracy of ±25mV ensures safe full-capacity charging; current detection accuracy of ±10mV guarantees accurate discharge over-current triggering.
Flexible Thermal Management: Discharge over-temperature / under-temperature (DOT/DUT) and charge over-temperature / under-temperature (COT/CUT) thresholds are independently configurable via external resistors, adapting to complex operating conditions.
Full MOS Driver Compatibility: Built-in circuitry directly drives external P-channel or N-channel charging MOSFETs and N-channel discharge MOSFETs, enabling flexible circuit design.
Multi-Level Over-Current Protection: Integrates three-stage discharge over-current detection (OC1, OC2, short-circuit) and independent charge over-current detection.
Ultra-Low Power Consumption: Operating current < 20μA, under-voltage current < 5μA, extending battery storage life.
