The BMS, or Battery Management System, plays a crucial role in Electric Vehicles. A BMS is required to monitor and maintain the battery pack for appropriate usage. The key responsibilities of BMS are as follows:
Cell balancing is the process of balancing the Soc and voltage of each cell.
The battery pack is protected against overcurrent, overvoltage, and Undervoltage circumstances.
Monitoring the temperature and isolating the BMS if it rises beyond a certain threshold.
Monitoring current, voltage, SoC (state of charge), and SoH (state of health) (state of health).
Effective charging and discharging.
