An Automatic Switched-Capacitor Cell Balancing Circuit for Series-Connected Battery Strings

In this paper, a novel voltage equalizer is developed for series battery strings based on the two-phase switched capacitor technique. Different from the conventional voltage equalizers which are developed by switched-mode power converters, bulky magnetic components and complex monitoring and control...
