The present disclosure is directed to a system for battery management and protection. A battery protection circuit may include a power semiconductor switch and a control integrated circuit (IC). The battery protection circuit may be configured to regulate the charging and/or discharging of a battery and further prevent the battery from operating outside of a safe operating area based on a protection trip point (e.g. overcurrent detection point) of the protection IC. The protection IC may be configured to calibrate a protection trip point so as to compensate for process and temperature variations of on resistance (RSSon) of the power semiconductor switch.

System for battery management and protection

A semiconductor die package and method of making the package. The package may have four semiconductor dies with one or more internally connected switch nodes, and may form a dual output or phase synchronous buck converter. The package may have control leads at opposite sides of the package from each other. Furthermore, the package may contain high side semiconductor dies that are oriented perpendicular to low side semiconductor dies.
