Product details
Overview
AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a single-chip Li+ battery protection IC integrating dual N-channel MOSFETs (RSS(ON) ≤16.5 mΩ), overcharge/overdischarge voltage detection (±25 mV accuracy), discharge overcurrent sensing (±15 mV), and short-circuit protection with 1.2 μs response. It operates in 1-cell Li-ion packs for portable power tools, Bluetooth headsets, and medical wearables.
For engineers reviewing the AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 datasheet, AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 pinout, AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 application, or AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include selectable auto-wake-up mode, 0V battery charge enable, ±25 mV overcharge voltage accuracy, and U-DFN2535-6 (Type B, Option 2) thermal pad layout compatibility.
Technical Context
The AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 implements independent voltage monitoring paths for VDD–VSS (cell voltage) and VM–VSS (current-sense differential), with dedicated delay timers per protection event (e.g., tCU = 1.0 s typ, tSHORT = 1.2 μs). Its logic circuit controls two integrated N-MOSFETs using level-shifted gate drivers referenced to common drain (EP).
It supports factory-configured options: auto-wake-up (not power-down), 0V battery charge enabled, and fixed overvoltage charger detection (8.0 V ±2 V). The VM pin interfaces with external R2 (2.7 kΩ typical) to convert current-sense voltage into a measurable analog signal for discharge/charge overcurrent and short-circuit detection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDD Operating Range | 1.5 V to 5.5 V - supports full Li+ cell voltage range (2.5 V–4.4 V) with margin for transient spikes. |
| Overcharge Detection Voltage | 4.250 V ±25 mV - high-accuracy threshold prevents premature charge cutoff and ensures safe full-charge termination. |
| Discharge Overcurrent Threshold | 0.150 V ±15 mV - enables precise current limiting at 15 A (with 10 mΩ sense resistor) without calibration. |
| Short-Circuit Response Time | 1.2 μs typ - shuts down discharge path before PCB trace fusing or connector arcing occurs. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.0 μA typ (Normal Mode) - extends shelf life of sealed battery packs during storage. |
| MOSFET RSS(ON) | 13.5 mΩ max (VDD = 3.9 V) - limits conduction loss to <200 mW at 9 A continuous discharge. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for consumer and industrial portable equipment environments. |
Pinout & Package
AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 uses the U-DFN2535-6 (Type B, Option 2) package: 2.5 mm × 3.5 mm × 0.55 mm body with exposed thermal pad (EP). Pin 1–6 are arranged as S1–VSS–VDD–VM–S2–NC (top view); EP must be soldered to large copper area for thermal management.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| S1 | Source of discharging MOSFET | Connected directly to battery negative terminal; carries full load current during discharge. |
| VSS | Negative power supply reference | System ground return for all internal comparators and logic; must be low-impedance. |
| VDD | Positive supply input | Connected to battery positive via R1 (330–470 Ω); powers internal circuitry and gate drivers. |
| VM | Current-sense input | Monitors voltage drop across external R2 to detect charge/discharge current and short circuits. |
| S2 | Source of charging MOSFET | Connected to charger negative input; blocks reverse current when charge overcurrent is detected. |
| NC | No connect | Pin 5 is unconnected and must remain floating; no routing or soldering required. |
| EP | Common drain thermal pad | Shared drain node for both MOSFETs; requires ≥100 mm² copper pour for 1000 mW power dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated dual N-MOSFETs | Eliminates need for external discrete FETs and reduces BOM count by 4 components in compact 1-cell packs. |
| Auto-wake-up mode | Enables automatic recovery from overdischarge without requiring charger connection-critical for user-replaceable batteries. |
| 0V battery charge enable | Permits safe reactivation of deeply discharged cells (0 V) using standard CC/CV chargers without manual intervention. |
| Fixed overvoltage charger detection | Protects against faulty >8.0 V chargers by disabling charge path instantly-no external Zener or divider needed. |
| Programmable protection thresholds | Factory-set VCU/VCL/VDL/VDU values allow customization per cell chemistry without changing firmware or external resistors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 1-cell Li+ battery protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seiko Instruments S-8261AAL-M6T1U | Separate IC + external MOSFETs; no integrated FETs; 4.25 V OCV accuracy ±30 mV. | Requires 4 extra passives and larger PCB area; lacks 0V charge and auto-wake-up. | Select when discrete FET selection (e.g., ultra-low Qg) is mandatory and board space permits. |
| Ricoh RP507K001B-TR-F | Single-chip with integrated MOSFETs but only 12 mΩ RSS(ON); no overvoltage charger detection. | Missing 8.0 V charger overvoltage lockout; requires external clamp for USB PD fast-charge compliance. | Prefer for cost-sensitive designs where charger fault protection is handled upstream. |
Compared with S-8261AAL-M6T1U and RP507K001B-TR-F, AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 uniquely combines integrated ultra-low-RDS(on) MOSFETs, factory-programmed 0V charge, auto-wake-up, and standalone overvoltage charger detection-reducing system-level component count by up to 7 parts while enabling robust field recovery.

FAQ
What is the function of the VM pin on AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7?
The VM pin serves as the current-sense input terminal, measuring the voltage difference between itself and VSS to detect discharge overcurrent, charge overcurrent, and short-circuit conditions. It connects externally to a sense resistor (R2 = 2.7 kΩ typical) between P− and the battery negative terminal, enabling analog current monitoring without additional amplifiers.
Does AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 support overvoltage protection for the charger input?
Yes-it integrates a dedicated overvoltage charger detection circuit with fixed 8.0 V ±2 V threshold and 7.3 V ±2 V release voltage. When VDD–VM exceeds 8.0 V, the charging MOSFET turns off immediately (no delay), protecting against faulty or mismatched chargers in USB-C PD and proprietary fast-charge systems.
How does the auto-wake-up mode differ from power-down mode in this part?
AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 is configured for auto-wake-up mode (denoted by "A" in part number), meaning it remains active during overdischarge and automatically resumes normal operation when battery voltage rises above VDU (e.g., 2.7 V) for tDLR (e.g., 1.0 s). Power-down mode (denoted by blank) would require external charger connection to exit overdischarge state.
Can AP9214LA-AG-HSBR-7 be used with lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) cells?
No-it is specifically designed for 1-cell Li-ion/Li-polymer chemistry with overcharge detection up to 4.5 V and overdischarge down to 2.0 V. LiFePO₄ cells have lower voltage ranges (2.5–3.65 V), requiring different thresholds; using this IC risks false overdischarge triggering or insufficient overcharge protection.
