However, lithium batteries can not be used without a suitable battery management system (BMS), to choose the right battery protection board, we must remember the following points: their components, functionality, types, selection considerations, applications, installation guidelines, advancements, and future trends.
Battery protection board, i.e. the circuit board that plays a protective role. It is mainly composed of electronic circuits, which can accurately monitor the voltage of the battery cell and the current of the charging and discharging circuits at any time under the environment of -40℃ to +85℃, and control the on-off of the current circuits in time.
A high voltage BMS typically manages the battery pack operations by monitoring and measuring the cell parameters and evaluating the SOC (State Of Charge) and SOH (State Of Health). The HV battery management system protects the cells in the battery pack by ensuring safe battery pack operations under the SOA (Safe Operating Area).
Easy to Use: The lithium battery PCB protection board module offers hassle-free installation and usage, eliminating the need for complex wiring processes and enabling a simple and fast setup. Rapid and Safe Charging: Incorporates an intelligent lithium cell management IC that facilitates fast and secure charging of the battery.
A battery protection unit (BPU) prevents possible damages to the battery cells and the failure of the battery. Over-charge: is when the battery is charged over the allowed maximum capacity. High & low temperature: is when the internal temperature of the battery cells exceeds their safe operational temperature ranges.
Multi-cell Protection Boards: Multi-cell protection boards are suitable for battery packs with multiple cells, such as those used in electric vehicles (EVs) or energy storage systems. They accommodate various battery chemistries and voltage ranges, such as Li-ion battery packs with voltages ranging from 7.2 to 48 volts or higher.
This battery management system (BMS) reference design board features the MP2797, an analog front-end with high-precision measurements, and the MPF42791, an advanced fuel gauge IC, as well as a touchscreen, passive fuse, power switch, and information LEDs.
