    摘要: A voltage measurement device measures the voltage of at least one of series-connected battery cells, and includes one or more voltage detection circuits. Each voltage detection circuit includes: a first communication path; a mode control circuit that switches a mode of operation of the voltage detection circuit between normal and low-power modes; a first communication control circuit (communication control circuit) that transmits and receives a command signal to and from the first communication path; an activation signal detection circuit that detects an activation signal input from the first communication path; and an alarm generation circuit that, in the low-power mode, generates and outputs an alarm signal indicating an anomaly in the battery cells to the first communication path. In the low-power mode, when the activation signal detection circuit detects the activation signal, the mode control circuit switches the mode of operation to the normal mode.

    摘要: A voltage measurement device individually detects, in a cell stack of n (n is an integer greater than or equal to two) battery cells connected in series, a voltage of each of the n battery cells, and includes: n+1 resistor elements, first terminals of which are connected to a positive electrode of an upper-end battery cell among the n battery cells, a negative electrode of a lower-end battery cell among the n battery cells, and connection points between the n battery cells; n+1 capacitors, first terminals of which are respectively connected to second terminals of the n+1 resistor elements; and a voltage measurer connected to the second terminals of the n+1 resistor elements. Second terminals of two or more capacitors among the n+1 capacitors are connected to a positive electrode of a k-th battery cell (k is an integer; 1≤k≤n−1) among the n battery cells.

    摘要: A voltage measurement device includes a first measurement circuit that measures voltage between both ends of a busbar, a second measurement circuit that measures voltage between both ends of each of a plurality of first battery cells and a plurality of second battery cells, and a correction circuit that corrects a measurement value measured by the second measurement circuit. The second measurement circuit is connected to the plurality of first battery cells, the busbar, and the plurality of second battery cells via the plurality of second RC filters. The correction circuit corrects a measurement value measured by the second measurement circuit using a measurement value of voltage between both ends of the busbar measured by the first measurement circuit.
