Battery control device and electricity storage device
First Claim
1. A battery control device that controls a battery module in which a plurality of cell groups, in each of which a plurality of cells are connected in series, are connected in series or series-parallel, comprising:
- a plurality of cell controller ICs that control each of the plurality of cell groups; and
one or more connectors that are provided for connecting the plurality of cell controller ICs to the battery module;
wherein;
the plurality of cell controller ICs include first and second cell controller ICs that are provided in sequence, so as to control two or more of the cell groups that are connected in series;
GND terminal side wiring of the first cell controller IC and VCC terminal side wiring of the second cell controller IC are electrically connected together, on the outside of the battery control device; and
the first cell controller IC and the second cell controller IC are configured to operate with different voltage levels provided by different cell groups of the plurality of cell groups.
