Cordless power tools are widely used both in the home and the workplace. Cordless power tools must be tough, compact and light weight, and also need long-lasting batteries. Safe operation and safety functions are also indispensable. ABLIC supplies a wide range of ICs that are ideal for electric screwdrivers and other cordless power tools. We provide a full line of linear regulators suitable for powering motor control microcontrollers, Hall effect ICs for detecting motor rotation and rotation direction, Rail-to-Rail input CMOS operational amplifiers for calculating current. These ICs all feature low current consumption and compact size to contribute to long life of cordless power tool batteries and compact tool size. Our lineup also includes a great number of battery monitoring ICs for improving the safety of lithium-ion battery packs and secondary protection ICs that provide dual overcharge protection for even greater safety. They also ensure that applications using them comply with UL, IEC and other safety standards. ABLIC supplies a comprehensive range of ICs, from motor control through to battery monitoring that are all specially designed for electric power tools.
