Battery protection ICs protect batteries from hazards such as overcharging, overdischarging and overcurrent.
ABLIC has been developing and producing battery protection ICs since 1993, and has a track record of approximately 30 years in the industry.

Lineup Diversity Facilitating “Appropriate Circuit Configuration”

If we include products that can be used with multi-cell batteries and automotive applications, our lineup offers about 2,100 products. Our vast product lineup provides strong support for developing safety-critical battery packs with secondary protection and other features to suit customer needs such as smaller, lighter, and thinner applications and the cascade connection of a large number of battery cells in series.

A 30-year Track Record Contributing to Safety and Security

In development and commercialization of products over a 30-year period since 1993, we have built and used the following knowhow,

• Safety-critical product design
• Advanced manufacturing technology
• Reliable quality control

to provide our customers with safe and secure products.

Improving “Battery Pack Performance”

The high-withstand voltage CMOS process used in ABLIC’s 1-cell battery protection ICs endows them with high accuracy and low power consumption. These ICs are also provided with the latest distinctive state-of-the-art functions optimized for a variety of applications enabling our customers to create battery packs with the performance they require.

Lineup of “Automotive Grade” High-quality Protection ICs

ABLIC offers a host of products for use in automotive applications.
The development of electric vehicles (EV) and autonomous driving is increasing the demand for batteries as the power source of an automotive system. ABLIC provides a lineup of automotive protection ICs for use in battery management systems (BMS) that manage automotive batteries.

Since automotive protection ICs must satisfy the high quality and high reliability required of automotive applications, we adopt the AEC-Q100 tests of the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) to assess the reliability and quality of our products. They are also PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) capable.
In addition, we can provide protection ICs developed for automotive BMS in accordance with ISO26262 Functional Safety Standard, and a Safety Manual.
ABLIC’s automotive protection ICs can be used for automotive applications that require higher safety.
