Battery and discharge FET protection circuit

A battery protection circuit comprising:

• cell terminals electrically connected to a positive electrode and a negative electrode of a battery;
• external terminals electrically connected to a positive electrode and a negative electrode of a charger or an electronic device;
• a discharge FET connected along a high current path between the cell terminals and the external terminals;
• a charge FET connected along the high current path between the cell terminals and the external terminals and connected to the discharge FET in series;
• a controller having a first terminal electrically connected to a control electrode of the discharge FET and a second terminal electrically connected to a control electrode of the charge FET, and configured to control operations of the charge FET and the discharge FET;
• a first resistor electrically connected between the control electrode of the discharge FET and the first terminal of the controller;
• a capacitor electrically connected between the control electrode of the discharge FET and a first electrode of the discharge FET;
• and
• a transistor electrically connected between the control electrode of the discharge FET and a second electrode of the discharge FET,
• wherein the capacitor has a first electrode electrically connected between a second electrode of the first resistor and the control electrode of the discharge FET, and a second electrode electrically connected between the first electrode of the discharge FET and a first electrode of the charge FET.
