Abstract: A switching power supply includes an insulated transformer, a full-bridge circuit which converts input DC power into AC power and outputs the AC power to a primary-side coil, an output circuit which converts AC power input from secondary-side coils into DC power and outputs the DC power, and a control circuit which controls the full-bridge circuit by using a phase shift method based on voltage output by the output circuit. When a measured value of the amount of phase shift determined from at least one of the voltage and current output by the output circuit is smaller than a theoretical value of the amount of phase shift corresponding to the switching power supply operating in a continuous current mode, the control circuit prolongs dead time used in the full-bridge circuit in accordance with the difference between the measured value and the theoretical value.

Abstract: There is provided a balancing device that equalizes voltages between storage cells of a battery composed of a plurality of series-connected storage cells or voltages between electrical storage modules composed of a plurality of series-connected storage cells of the battery. The balancing device equalizes voltages between the energy storage modules by transferring electric power between the electrical storage modules through an element to which all of the electrical storage modules are connected, the transferring being realized by on-off control of current supply to each of the electrical storage modules, the on-off control being performed with a first duty cycle. Further, the balancing device introduces a period in which the on-off control is performed with a second duty cycle, the second duty cycle being different from the first duty cycle. Furthermore, the balancing device measures a voltage applied to each of the capacitance elements C1 and C2 which connect between the terminals of the electrical storage modules respectively. Furthermore, the balancing device determines the presence of an open circuit in lines which connect the capacitance elements C1 and C2 and the electrical storage modules, the determination being performed based on change of the voltages during the period which are applied to the capacitance elements C1 and C2.

Abstract: In a balance correction circuit including a plurality of converter type balance correction units that control a supply of a current to a plurality of power storage cells by complementarily on/off controlling two switching elements and hereby allowing to exchange power between or among power storage cells via an inductor to equalize the voltages of the power storage cells, a common timing signal used to generate a control signal of a switching element is supplied to each of the above balance correction units. For example, the balance correction circuit generates a timing signal to supply to a first balance correction unit based on a variation in a voltage applied to the capacitive element charged by a voltage difference created between a control signal generated by the second balance correction unit and a second power storage cell cathode of the balance correction unit.
