[0097] In one embodiment, the first preset value is calculated based on the eighth resistance value, the ninth resistance value and the voltage of the battery pack (100);

[0098] The second preset value is calculated based on the tenth resistance value, the eleventh resistance value, the twelfth resistance value and the voltage of the second reference standard source (202);

[0099] The third preset value is calculated based on the tenth resistance value, the eleventh resistance value and the voltage of the second reference standard source (202).

[0100] In this embodiment, the first preset value is calculated as follows:

[0101]

[0102] Wherein, Vb+b- is the voltage between the positive electrode (102) and the negative electrode (101) of the battery pack, R 8 is the resistance value of the eighth resistor (408), R 9 is the resistance value of the ninth resistor (409), ADC 1 This is the first diagnosis result.

[0103] The calculation formula of the second preset value is:

[0104]

[0105] Wherein, Vref2 is the reference voltage of the second reference source (202), R 11 is the resistance value of the first resistor (401), R 10 is the resistance value of the first resistor (401), ADC 2 This is the second diagnosis result.

[0106] The calculation formula of the third preset value is:

[0107]

[0108] Wherein, Vref2 is the reference voltage of the second reference source (202), R 11 is the resistance value of the first resistor (401), R 10 is the resistance value of the first resistor (401), ADC 2 is the second diagnosis result, R 12 is the resistance value of the first resistor (401).

[0109] In one embodiment, the fourth preset value is obtained according to the third voltage value and the fourth voltage value;

[0110] The fifth preset value is obtained according to the second voltage value and the fourth voltage value, or is calculated according to the eleventh resistance value in the fourth diagnostic circuit;

[0111] The fifth preset value is obtained according to the eleventh resistance value and the third voltage value.

[0112] In this embodiment, when the charging positive relay cannot be disconnected and the charging negative relay cannot be disconnected, the first capacitor (500) (hundred uf level) of the vehicle discharge circuit is as follows: Figure 3 The arrow path shown in FIG. 1 shows, at this time, the voltage waveform collected by the first analog-to-digital converter (601) is approximately the discharge curve of the first capacitor (500) to the first resistor (401), that is, the fourth preset value, such as Figure 4As shown, the reasonable detection time of the voltage of the first analog-to-digital converter (601) can refer to the discharge time τ of C1 = 3*R1*C1.

[0113] At this time, the node current path of the second analog-to-digital converter (602) is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the calculation formula of the fifth preset value is:

[0114] ADC 2 =-R 11 *IR 11

[0115] Where, ADC 2 is the second diagnosis result, R 11 is the resistance of the first resistor (401), I is the current, IR 11 After being limited by the bridge arm resistor, the current is only at the uA level, so the voltage sampled by the second analog-to-digital converter (602) is close to 0V.

[0116] When the positive charging relay is disconnected and the negative charging relay cannot be disconnected, the discharge circuit is as follows Figure 6 As shown, at this time, the voltage waveform collected on the first analog-to-digital converter (601) is approximately the discharge curve of the first capacitor (500) to R1. The voltage detection time of the first analog-to-digital converter (601) can refer to the discharge time τ=3*R1*C1 of C1.

[0117] The current path analysis for the second analog-to-digital converter (602) is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, at this time ADC 2 =-R 11 *IR 11 Since IR11 is limited by the bridge arm resistor to only uA level, the voltage sampled by the second analog-to-digital converter (602) is close to 0V.
