Infineon TLE9012AQU Battery Monitoring & Balancing IC

Achieve Zero CO2: Get the most out of your battery!

Infineon TLE9012AQU Battery Monitoring and Balancing IC is a multi-channel battery monitoring and balancing system IC that belongs to Infineon’s Battery Management Sensing IC product family.

Designed for Li-Ion battery packs used in many applications on the automotive world (Electric Vehicles of any kind MHEV, HEV, PHEV and BEV, etc), industrial (Energy storage systems) and consumer (i.e. ebike BMS, home energy storage, etc), the TLE9012AQU fulfills four main functions: cell voltage measurement, temperature measurement, cell balancing and isolated communication to main battery controller. By providing the necessary diagnosis tools to ensure proper function, the TLE9012AQU IC guarantees safety of the persons around the controlled battery.
