  • Page 6: Overview

    Lithium-ion batteries are the preferred energy storage system (ESS) for modern electric drive systems. The mBMS permits safe operation of lithium-ion batteries up to 800 volts. The mBMS supports various ESS topologies – single battery systems as well as multi battery systems for larger installations.

    Figure 2 shows the devices for a battery management system and their interconnection. This diagram can be found as a separate file in a larger format and higher resolution. The key components (marked green) can only be purchased from STW. The additional components (marked yellow) may be obtained from 3 parties.
  • Page 8 Hardware Guide PMB – Power Measurement Board / current sensor The PMB measures the current (shunt resistor) which flows in or out of the battery, the voltage value of the battery stack and the traction net. The PMB is equipped with a unique redundant safety circuit which enables the PMB to directly signal a current limit violation.
  • Page 9: Additional Components

    Hardware Guide 3.3 Additional components Main switches The main switches are connecting and disconnecting the power source or load to/from the battery. They must be able to interrupt the flowing current in short circuit situation to prevent uncontrollable situations.

    (see chapter 5 for further information). Therefore, the role of the BMS has to be defined within the mBMS network. This is done by cable configuration in the low voltage interconnection.
  • Page 16: Csc Configuration

    §7 In order to adapt to geometrical restrictions or in order to optimize wiring, a CSC may be split mechanically into four separate modules and a controller board. The separation needs to be prepared and carried out by STW. The bus connections among the separated boards need to be carried out with twisted pair wires.
  • Page 17 Hardware Guide Example 1 CSC board has to sense 36 cells Related rules: §2, §5  For 36 cells, use the first three measuring modules on the CSC and leave the last one unconnected. can be removed 12 cells...
  • Page 18 Hardware Guide Example 2 CSC has to sense 7 cells Related rules: §2, §3, §5  It is recommended to connect the unused cell voltage inputs of the CSC and the “UB”- Input. The UB connection has to be connected to the highest voltage of the module, here Cell 7+.
  • Page 19 Hardware Guide Example 3 CSC board has to sense 13 cells Related rules: §2, §3, §5  Reduce the utilization to two measuring modules. This could be done in this manner: seven cells to the first module, six to the second. Do not connect less than four cells to one measuring board (the voltage level between pin 8 and 13 must be higher than 11V in any case.)
  • Page 20 Hardware Guide Example 4 CSC board has to sense 12 cells (incl. temperature of each cell) Related rules: §2, §4, §5, §6  In early steps of battery system development, the developer wants to know the voltage and the temperature of each cell in the system. In further steps, the amount of sensors will be reduced.
  • Page 21: Interlock

    Hardware Guide 4.7 Interlock The BMS provides an interlock detector (DET) and generator (GEN) considering the requirements of the “LV123” specification. The generator can be disabled per software configuration if there is an external interlock signal generated by another system component.
