Additional Details

The S-8211CAN-I6T1G features a built-in delay circuit to prevent false triggering of the protection functions due to transient voltage spikes. The overcharge, overdischarge, and overcurrent detection thresholds are factory-set to precise values, ensuring consistent and reliable performance. The IC typically operates with a supply voltage in the range of 1.5V to 5.5V. It is available in a small SOT-23-6 package. The specific overcurrent detection level depends on the external MOSFET used in the protection circuit. This IC is RoHS compliant.
