The components of the power management integrated circuits (PMICs) and their associated functions enable customers to design internal power supplies with significantly reduced complexity and materials cost. The TSM1012IST power management IC is a particularly advanced example of such a device, offering programmable protection for both input and output circuitry, any of a variety of voltage, current and temperature monitoring functions, and fully integrated charging functions for a wide range of rechargeable battery chemistries. This article will discuss the application fields of the TSM1012IST and the manner in which it works.

Battery Charger Applications

The TSM1012IST is specifically designed to support applications that require the intelligent charging of a range of battery types, including Lithium Ion (Li-ion) and Nickel-Metal-Hydride (NiMH). In this capacity, the device acts as a ‘dual-mode’ charger, being capable of both constant-current (‘fast’) and constant-voltage (‘trickle’) charging of single or multiple battery cells. In both modes, the IC provides current-limiting, voltage-limiting and temperature-limiting for all cells connected to it. It also incorporates an exceptional level of fault detection, fully-automated recovery, and status reporting capabilities, thereby allowing for the safe charging and discharge of the batteries.

The TSM1012IST is particularly suitable for responding to the wide-ranging requirements of battery chargers used in a number of different scenarios. For instance, it can be used in products such as wireless equipment, where the ability to effectively charge high-capacity NiMH batteries can be critical to long-term operation of the systems. It is also well-suited to high-drain applications such as digital cameras and video players, where it is necessary to recharge a large number of high-capacity batteries in a relatively short time period. In these and similar applications, the TSM1012IST can be programmed to automatically regulate the charging process based on the requirements of the battery pack, thereby reducing the time and cost associated with traditional off-line charging methods.

Working Principle

The TSM1012IST device is a microcontroller-based IC that is composed of two main components - a digital section and an analog section. The digital section provides the necessary control logic and programmable parameters that enable the IC to be configured for various charging scenarios, while the analog section is responsible for monitoring and controlling the charge current and voltage outputs. The device is internally connected to the host system\'s I2C bus, which is then used to provide the regulating parameters to the IC. When the battery is connected, the microcontroller-based control system automatically determines the type of battery being charged and adjusts its parameters accordingly.

The TSM1012IST also features an adjustable feedback loop that can be used to monitor and control the charge current, as well as a charge cycle counter for keeping track of the number of successful charging cycles completed by the device. The device can also be configured to automatically shut down the charging process when the selected charge profile has been achieved, thereby conserving power and preventing any unnecessary damage to the battery cells.

Furthermore, the device also incorporates several advanced features such as overcharge, over-current and thermal protection to ensure the safe operation of the system. The on-board microcontroller actively monitors the charge current and voltage outputs, and is able to immediately shut down the charging process should any of the aforementioned conditions be detected.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the TSM1012IST is an ideal solution for applications requiring safe and efficient charging of a variety of rechargeable battery chemistries. Its microcontroller-based control system offers a great degree of flexibility and versatility, allowing it to be easily configured to suit the requirements of various charging profiles. Furthermore, its advanced fault detection, protection and monitoring capabilities ensure the safe and reliable operation of the system, thereby providing peace of mind for the user.
