Abstract
Battery management implement cell balancing algorithms to equalize state of charge of series-connected cells in a battery pack. Balancing strategies range from passive, where a simple resistive circuit is used to drain current from the battery cell, to active, where sophisticated control schemes and advanced circuitry may be employed. Recent development of active balancing control strategies for a modular cell-balancing architecture utilize low-voltage bypass DC-DC converters and a shared low-voltage dc bus. Although these systems show promise in preliminary experiments, questions remain over the inherent stability properties of the architecture. This letter presents a stability analysis for an N-cell battery module and provides insight for design of embedded controllers.
