LiPo Management

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ20Z65-R1, BQ20Z45-R1

Hello,

 

Í'm trying to find an "all-in-one" solution for managing two LiPo-cells in series. The problem is, that I can't see the wood for the trees anymore, because there are so many options. I can't find a single IC that does everything, but using multiple IC's results in double functionality. Or the IC is only usable for Li-ion batteries, and I do not know if they can be used for LiPo batteries.

The functionality I'm searching for is:
 - Balance the two LiPo cells
 - Protect the individual LiPo cells from overvoltage (4.200V)
 - Protect the individual LiPo cells from undervoltage (3.00V)
 - Protect the LiPo cells from a short circuit
 - Low battery alert

Is there anyone who has experience with this problem and can possibly help me?

With kind regards,

Samoht
