APPLICATION Battery Management

Battery management systems are required for lithium-ion automotive batteries to maximize efficiency and lifespan. Lithium-ion batteries are smaller, lighter, and store more energy than nickel-metal hydride batteries. However, lithium-ion batteries quickly lose capacity if overcharged or deeply discharged without management. Atmel's battery management is the first to feature active cell balancing for high cell count lithium-ion batteries to prevent energy loss through simultaneous and precise voltage measurement of all cells.

Battery Management:

Battery efficiency and lifespan are key elements for automotive battery applications. Li-ion batteries are based on advanced technology that makes them the first choice for modern high-performance batteries. They are up to 30 percent smaller and 50 percent lighter than conventional NiMH batteries, yet store considerably more energy. While Li-ion batteries offer concrete advantages in terms of size, weight, recharge speed, life span, and resistance to memory effects, they also quickly lose capacity, and are potentially unsafe if overcharged or discharged too deeply. A battery management system is required to avoid this to happen.

BENEFITS:

Active balancing Atmel's battery management is the industry's first solution that features active cell balancing for high cell count Li-ion batteries to prevent energy loss. Highest accuracy due to simultaneous cell voltage measurement of the cells in the entire battery stack leading to precise state-of-charge and state of health calculation.
