Application: Active cell balancing (Patent ID: US20240204540A1)

The patent filed by Texas Instruments Inc. describes a system that includes two batteries, an integrated circuit, a capacitor, and an inductor. The integrated circuit consists of four transistors and a control circuit that manages the flow of current between the batteries, capacitor, and inductor. The control circuit is designed to enable and disable the transistors based on control signals to efficiently transfer charge between the batteries. The system is configured to optimize the transfer of charge based on the voltage difference between the batteries and the inductance of the inductor.

The patent also includes claims for an integrated circuit and a method for transferring charge between battery cells using a capacitor and an inductor. The method involves connecting and disconnecting the components in a specific sequence to facilitate the transfer of charge at a rate determined by the voltage and inductance. The system described in the patent includes multiple modules with half bridge circuits, inductors, capacitors, and a control circuit to manage the flow of current between the modules. Overall, the patent focuses on optimizing the transfer of charge between battery cells using a combination of transistors, capacitors, and inductors controlled by a sophisticated control circuit.
