Patent ID: 7898092

Claim:
A battery protection package assembly, comprising: a power control integrated circuit (IC); first and second common-drain metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) electrically coupled to the power control IC, wherein the power control IC and the first and second common-drain metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFET) are co-packaged on a common die pad, wherein the power control IC is vertically stacked on top of both of the first and second common-drain MOSFETs such that the power control IC overlaps both of the first and second common-drain MOSFETs, wherein leads coupled to a supply voltage input (VCC) and a ground (VSS) of the power control IC are on a first side of the common die pad and leads coupled to a voltage monitor (VM) pin of the power control IC and output (OUTM) of the battery protection package assembly are on a second side of the common die pad opposite to the first side.
