Success with Lithium Batteries

Lithium-ion technolgy takes the lead if you want to have high energy density, light weight, long cycle life and very low self discharge options in your battery powered energy systems. When designing with lithium batteries, there are many products to choose in many ways. This brings to you more flexibility and chance to get optimized solutions.

Lithium products, cell chemistries and technical parameters are innovating by scientists in every second. Thus, you can always have better solutions and better specifications by just only updating cell model without changing any dimension or geometry.

Here are the key benefits when you use LiOn battery,

  • No memory effect
  • Very low impedence
  • Long cycle life
  • High energy density
  • Light Weight
  • Ultra low self discharge

Control with Battery Management Systems

Battery management systems (BMS) are electronic control circuits that monitor and regulate the charging and discharge of batteries. The battery characteristics to be monitored include the detection of battery type, voltages, temperature, capacity, state of charge, power consumption, remaining operating time, charging cycles and some more characteristics.

The task of battery management systems is to ensure the optimal use of the residual energy present in a battery. In order to avoid loading the batteries, BMS systems protect the batteries from deep discharge, from over voltage, which are results of  extreme fast charge and extreme high discharge current. In the case of multi-cell batteries, the battery management system also provides for cell balancing function, to manage that different battery cells have  same charging and discharging requirements.
