AN2309 The balancing circuit is represented by (R1, Q1) and (R2, Temperature gradient across the battery pack. Q2). These transistors and resistors dissipate energy and Temperature mismatches of 15 degrees Celsius can control the amount of balancing current. cause up to 5- percent capacity differential among cells. Such a temperature gradient is relatively common in If cell balancing is performed during the charge phase, the densely packed products, where multiple heat sources c

AN2309 The minimum cell-balance parameter consists of the voltage measure error value plus the internal impedance error value. The cell-balancing algorithm that is implemented here does not significantly lengthen the charge time. The charger monitors all of the cell voltages. Cell balancing is performed during both phases and it is realized in one common module. The cell- balancing algorithm is represented in Figure 11. The cell-balancing profile examples are shown in the Appendix, Figure
