Abstract:
A method of operating a battery system includes a plurality of battery cells coupled in series. The plurality of cells includes at least three battery cells coupled in series. The method includes determining a cell with the greatest charge excess of the plurality of battery cells. The method further includes determining a cell with the greatest charge deficit of the plurality of battery cells. The method further includes discharging the cell with the greatest charge excess to charge, with a voltage converter, the cell with the greatest charge deficit.
