TPS SY8801 TWS earphone charging case SOC, specially designed for TWS earphone charging case. On the basis of the design to ensure safety and high reliability (supports 28V input withstand voltage, built-in full-function charging and discharging overvoltage, overcurrent, overtemperature, short circuit protection, etc.), it also integrates I2C communication function and internal communication isolation function . Through the I2C interface, the MCU of the system can read and configure the internal functions of the power supply and the parameters of battery charge and discharge management, and easily realize such as NTC protection, segment adjustment of battery current, TWS earbuds warehouse entry, warehouse exit detection, and automatic power output. and other functions.
The integrated internal communication isolation module of TPS SY8801 greatly optimizes the functional design of the smart TWS charging compartment. No complicated peripheral circuits are required, and the MCU can be realized by connecting and controlling the SY8801. It can not only realize the function of charging the earphone, but also transmit data through the POGO PIN of the power supply connected to the earphone, and realize functions including uploading the power of the charging compartment, clearing and pairing the earphone in the charging compartment, restoring the factory settings, and upgrading the earphone software.
