Abstract

The present invention discloses a switching circuit, a system and a method form balancing battery cells. The method for balancing multiple battery cells which are grouped into multiple battery modules includes: obtaining cell parameters of the battery cells, respectively; calculating an average cell parameter for each of the battery modules according to the cell parameters; identifying a donator module and a receiver module from the battery modules based upon the average cell parameter; and transferring energy from the donator module to the receiver module to balance the battery cells. A circuit for balancing battery cells in the present invention uses a converter to transfer energy from the donator module to the receiver module, thus the system for balancing battery cells in the utility model can be suitable for a charging process, a discharging process and an idle state of the battery, and can raise balancing efficiency and reduce complexity of the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a battery management system, in particular to a battery unit equalization system and method for performing equalization processing on a plurality of battery units and a conversion circuit applied to the battery unit equalization system. Background technique [0002] A battery pack having a plurality of battery cells, such as a lithium-ion battery pack, is widely used in power tools to power the power tools. Power tools include, but are not limited to, electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. However, each battery cell will have a difference due to the degree of aging or the temperature of the battery. As the number of charging / discharging cycles increases, the voltage or capacity of the battery cells will vary, resulting in unbalanced battery cells. [0003] More precisely, if cell imbalance occurs during the charging process, when the battery management system detects that the battery cell with the lowest capacity has ...
