Flyback Converter for a Multi-Chemistry Battery Balancer

Abstract

This paper presents the development and testing of a Flyback converter for multi-chemistry battery balancer. The development was done considering that this circuit must ensure efficiency, reliability and safety for battery balancers that equip Li-Ion and Pb-acid batteries. The design was done using LtSpice software, and the testing was done in Matlab/Simulink environment using real data for several batteries.
