The centralized battery management module consists of a single module which has the entire functionality integrated into it and is connected to the battery cells or number of batteries through wires. It offers string current, single-cell voltage, and temperature measurement in the system. A centralized battery management module is designed on a single chip, and its protective function is bifurcated into two different stages. The first stage of the battery management module monitors the voltage, temperature, and current and manages the balancing function. A centralized battery management module is cost effective, and the maintenance and repair of the module are also cheap. The cost is further reduced, and errors are easily detected if only a single integrated circuit is used. A centralized battery management module uses the same offsets for all cells; hence, its accuracy level is high...Read more
