Example one
Fig. 1 is a schematic circuit structure diagram of a battery management unit according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, the battery management unit includes: an isolated dc converter 11, a Controller Area Network (CAN) converter 12, a non-isolated dc converter 13, a logic chip 14, and a first load 15. Where GND shown in fig. 1 represents ground.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, an input end of the isolated dc converter 11 is connected to the battery pack, a first output end of the isolated dc converter 11 is grounded, a second output end of the isolated dc converter 11 is connected to an input end of the CAN converter 12, and a first output end of the CAN converter 12 is grounded.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the isolation dc converter 11 is configured to obtain electric energy from a battery pack in the battery system, and convert a voltage of the obtained electric energy, and further, the isolation dc converter 11 provides electric energy to the CAN converter 12 by using the converted voltage.
As shown in fig. 1, a first input end of the non-isolated dc converter 13 is connected to the battery pack, a first output end of the non-isolated dc converter 13 is grounded, a second output end of the non-isolated dc converter 13 is connected to an input end of the logic chip 14, and an output end of the logic chip 14 is grounded;
specifically, as shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the non-isolated dc converter 13 is configured to obtain electric energy from a battery pack in the battery system, and convert a voltage of the obtained electric energy, and further, after receiving the wake-up signal, the non-isolated dc converter 13 may provide the electric energy to the logic chip 14 by using the converted voltage.
As shown in fig. 1, the input terminal of the first load 15 is connected to the battery pack, and the output terminal of the first load 15 is grounded. It will be appreciated that the power of the first load 15 is directly supplied by the battery pack of the battery system, i.e. the supply voltage of the first load 15 is directly supplied without conversion. In one particular implementation, the first load 15 may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a fan and other electronic components.
It can be understood that, as shown in fig. 1, the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack is different from the voltage of the electric energy converted by the isolated dc converter 11; and the voltage of the electric energy supplied by the battery pack is also different from the voltage of the electric energy converted by the non-isolated dc converter 13.
It should be noted that the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack may be determined according to actual needs, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the voltage of the electric power supplied from the battery pack may vary within a voltage range of 36V to 60V. For example, in one particular implementation, the voltage of the electrical energy provided by the battery pack may be 48V.
As shown in fig. 1, the voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the acquired electric energy by the isolated dc converter 11 and the voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the acquired electric energy by the non-isolated dc converter 13 may be preset according to actual needs, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention. The voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the acquired electric energy by the isolated dc converter 11 and the voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the acquired electric energy by the non-isolated dc converter 13 may be the same or different, and the embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited thereto.
In a specific implementation process, as shown in fig. 1, the voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the obtained electric energy by the isolated dc converter 11 may be preset to be 12V in consideration of the voltage range of the electronic components inside the battery management unit.
In a specific implementation process, as shown in fig. 1, the voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the obtained electric energy by the non-isolated dc converter 13 may be preset to be 12V in consideration of the voltage range of the electronic components inside the battery management unit.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the isolated dc converter 11 may directly obtain electric energy from the battery pack to supply power to itself; furthermore, the isolated dc converter 11 CAN directly convert the voltage of the electric energy obtained from the battery pack, and further supply the electric energy to the CAN converter 12 by using the converted voltage.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the non-isolated dc converter 13 may directly obtain electric energy from the battery pack to supply power to itself; however, the non-isolated dc converter 13 will only operate after receiving the wake-up signal. That is, the non-isolated dc converter 13 converts the voltage of the electric energy obtained from the battery pack only after receiving the wake-up signal, and then supplies the electric energy to the logic chip 14 by using the converted voltage. That is, if the non-isolated dc converter 13 does not receive the wake-up signal, the non-isolated dc converter 13 does not convert the voltage of the electric energy obtained from the battery pack, and thus cannot provide the electric energy to the logic chip 14.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 1, the power supply from the isolated dc converter 11 to the CAN converter 12 CAN be performed without interruption, while the power supply from the non-isolated dc converter 13 to the logic chip 14 is performed after the condition of receiving the wake-up signal is satisfied. Therefore, uninterrupted electric energy is provided for the CAN converter 12 through the isolated direct current converter 11, the normal operation of the CAN converter 12 is ensured, and the information interaction between the battery management unit and an external controller is further ensured; the non-isolated dc converter 13 does not work before receiving the wake-up signal, and the logic chip 14 and other electronic components powered by the non-isolated dc converter 13 also do not work, so that power resources are effectively saved, and unnecessary power waste is avoided.
Specifically, the battery management unit provided by the embodiment of the present invention may further include a wake-up chip and a second load. Fig. 2 is a schematic circuit diagram of a battery management unit according to a second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the battery management unit includes: an isolated dc converter 11, a CAN converter 12, a non-isolated dc converter 13, a logic chip 14, a first load 15, a wake-up chip 16 and a second load 17. Where GND shown in fig. 2 represents ground.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, a battery pack in the battery system may directly provide electric energy for the isolated dc converter 11, the non-isolated dc converter 13, and the first load 17; the isolated dc converter 11 provides electric energy for the CAN converter 12 and the wake-up chip 16 by using the converted voltage; after receiving the wake-up signal, the non-isolated dc converter 13 provides power to the logic chip 14 and the second load 17 by using the converted voltage.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the wake-up signal received by the non-isolated dc converter 13 may include, but is not limited to, the following two cases.
First, if the CAN converter 12 does not have the wake-up function, as shown in fig. 2, the battery management unit further includes a wake-up chip 16, and the non-isolated dc converter 13 receives a wake-up signal sent by the wake-up chip 16.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, the CAN converter 12 does not have a wake-up function, and may be that the CAN converter 12 does not have a function of receiving a wake-up signal sent by an external controller of the battery system; alternatively, the CAN converter 12 may not have a function of transmitting the wake-up signal to the non-isolated dc converter 13. At this time, the wake-up chip 16, which needs to have a wake-up function, receives a wake-up signal transmitted from the external controller of the battery system, and transmits the received wake-up signal to the non-isolated dc converter 13. Wherein the wake-up signal is used to wake up the non-isolated dc converter 13 to operate.
In a specific implementation process, as shown in fig. 2, an input end of the wake-up chip 16 is connected to the third output end of the isolated dc converter 11, and a first output end of the wake-up chip 16 is grounded. Specifically, a second output terminal of the wake-up chip 16 is connected to a second input terminal of the non-isolated dc converter 13.
It will be appreciated that the power for waking up the chip 16 is provided by the isolated dc converter 11 in the battery management unit using the converted voltage, as shown in fig. 2.
Secondly, if the CAN converter 12 has a wake-up function, as shown in fig. 1, the non-isolated dc converter 13 receives a wake-up signal sent by the CAN converter 12.
In a specific implementation, as shown in fig. 1, a second output terminal of the CAN converter 12 is connected to a second input terminal of the non-isolated dc converter 13.
As shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the CAN converter 12 has a wake-up function, that is, the CAN converter 12 has a function of receiving a wake-up signal transmitted by an external controller of the battery system and a function of transmitting the received wake-up signal to the non-isolated dc converter 13. Wherein the wake-up signal is used to wake up the non-isolated dc converter 13 to operate.
In one specific implementation, to reduce unnecessary waste of power, the load of the isolated dc converter 11 may consider a minimum wake-up system. As shown in fig. 1, the isolated dc converter 11 only supplies power to the CAN converter 12, and the wake-up system in the battery management unit shown in fig. 1 only includes the CAN converter 12; alternatively, as shown in fig. 2, the isolated dc converter 11 only supplies power to the CAN converter 12 and the wake-up chip 16, and the wake-up system in the battery management unit shown in fig. 2 only includes the CAN converter 12 and the wake-up chip 16.
In particular, the isolated dc converter 11, the CAN converter 12 and the wake-up chip 16 may be selected to have as little static current as possible. Specifically, the input current of the isolated dc converter 11 is smaller, and the output current of the isolated dc converter 11 is also smaller, specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the output current of the isolated dc converter 11 may be hundreds of microamperes.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, the battery management unit may further include, but is not limited to, a second load 17.
In a specific implementation, as shown in fig. 2, an input terminal of the second load 17 is connected to the third output terminal of the non-isolated dc converter 13, and an output terminal of the second load 17 is grounded. That is, the non-isolated dc converter 13 may utilize the converted voltage to provide power to the second load 17 after receiving the wake-up.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, the second load 17 may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a logic circuit, a control chip, a driving circuit, and other electronic components.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, the voltage used by the first load 15 is the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack in the battery system, and the voltage used by the second load 17 is the voltage converted by the non-isolated dc converter 13 in the battery management unit.
It will be appreciated that in one particular implementation, how power is supplied to the electronic components in the battery management unit may be determined based on the voltage used by the electronic components in the battery management unit.
For example, assume that the voltage of the power supplied by the battery pack is 48V, and the converted voltage of the non-isolated dc converter is 12V; if the voltage used by the fan in the battery management unit is 48V, the fan is directly powered by the battery pack, and at this time, the fan can be used as the first load 15; or, if the voltage used by the fan in the battery management unit is 12V, the fan may not be directly powered by the battery pack, but needs to be powered by the voltage converted by the non-isolated dc converter, and in this case, the fan may serve as the second load 17.
Alternatively, for example, a large-current driving circuit that cannot directly supply power from a voltage of 48V and needs to supply power from 12V belongs to the second load 17; and a large current driving circuit that can be directly supplied with a voltage of 48V may be used as the first load 15.
The battery management unit provided by the embodiment of the invention has the following beneficial effects:
according to the battery management unit provided by the embodiment of the invention, through the improvement of the internal circuit in the battery management unit, the power supply of an additional power supply outside the battery system to the battery management unit is cancelled, and the battery pack in the battery system provides electric energy for the battery management unit in the battery system, so that a complex circuit structure which needs to be considered when the additional power supply outside the battery system supplies power to the battery management unit is avoided, the circuit structure inside the battery management unit is effectively simplified, further, unnecessary electric quantity waste is avoided, and the equipment cost and the power supply cost are saved.
Example two
Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a power supply method for a battery management unit according to an embodiment of the present invention.

as shown in fig. 3, the method includes:
s301, the isolated direct current converter, the non-isolated direct current converter and the first load respectively obtain electric energy from the battery pack.
The power for the isolated dc converter, the non-isolated dc converter and the first load is provided directly from the battery pack in the battery management unit. That is, the supply voltages of the isolated dc converter, the non-isolated dc converter and the first load are supplied directly without conversion.
In one particular implementation, the first load may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a fan and other electronic components.
It should be noted that the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack may be determined according to actual needs, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the voltage of the electric power supplied from the battery pack may vary within a voltage range of 36V to 60V.

It can be understood that the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack is different from the voltage of the electric energy converted by the isolated dc converter.
It should be noted that the voltage of the electric energy converted by the isolated dc converter may be preset according to actual needs, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
In a specific implementation process, the voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the obtained electric energy by the isolated dc converter may be preset to be 12V in consideration of the voltage range of the electronic components inside the battery management unit.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the output current of the isolated dc converter is small, and may be hundreds of microamperes.
In particular, isolating the load of the dc converter may allow for a minimal wake-up system. In a specific implementation process, the isolated dc converter only provides power to the CAN converter; or the isolated direct current converter only provides power for the CAN converter and the wake-up chip. Thus, the isolated dc converter, the CAN converter and the wake-up chip may be chosen to have as little static current as possible.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the invention, the isolated direct current converter can directly obtain electric energy from the battery pack to supply power for the isolated direct current converter; and the isolated direct current converter CAN directly convert the voltage of the electric energy acquired from the battery pack, and then the converted voltage is used for providing the electric energy for the CAN converter.
And S303, after receiving the wake-up signal, the non-isolated direct current converter converts the voltage of the acquired electric energy and provides the electric energy for the logic chip by using the converted voltage.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the non-isolated dc converter is configured to obtain electric energy from a battery pack in the battery system, and convert a voltage of the obtained electric energy, and further, after receiving the wake-up signal, the non-isolated dc converter may provide the electric energy to the logic chip by using the converted voltage.
It is understood that the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack is different from the voltage of the electric energy converted by the non-isolated dc converter. Specifically, the voltage of the electric energy converted by the non-isolated dc converter may be preset according to actual needs, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
In a specific implementation process, in consideration of a voltage range of electronic components inside the battery management unit, a voltage obtained by converting the voltage of the obtained electric energy by the non-isolated dc converter may be preset to be 12V.
The voltage of the electric energy converted by the isolated dc converter may be the same as or different from the voltage of the electric energy converted by the non-isolated dc converter, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the invention, the non-isolated dc converter can directly obtain electric energy from the battery pack to supply power to the non-isolated dc converter; however, the non-isolated dc converter will only operate after receiving the wake-up signal. That is, the non-isolated dc converter converts the voltage of the electric energy obtained from the battery pack only after receiving the wake-up signal, and then supplies the electric energy to the logic chip by using the converted voltage. That is, if the non-isolated dc converter does not receive the wake-up signal, the non-isolated dc converter does not convert the voltage of the acquired electric energy, and thus cannot provide the electric energy to the logic chip.
It should be noted that the isolation dc converter may supply power to the CAN converter without interruption, and the non-isolation dc converter may supply power to the logic chip only after receiving the wake-up signal. Therefore, uninterrupted electric energy is provided for the CAN converter through the isolated direct current converter, the normal operation of the CAN converter is ensured, and the information interaction between the battery management unit and an external controller is further ensured; the non-isolated direct current converter does not work before receiving the wake-up signal, and the logic chip and other electronic components powered by the non-isolated direct current converter also do not work, so that the electric energy resource is effectively saved, and unnecessary electric energy waste is avoided.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the wake-up signal received by the non-isolated dc converter may include, but is not limited to, the following two cases.
First, if the CAN converter does not have a wake-up function, the battery management unit further includes a wake-up chip, and the non-isolated dc converter receives a wake-up signal sent by the wake-up chip.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the CAN converter does not have a wake-up function, and may be a function that the CAN converter does not have a wake-up signal sent by the external controller of the battery system; alternatively, the CAN converter may not have a function of transmitting the wake-up signal to the non-isolated dc converter. At this time, the wake-up chip with the wake-up function is required to receive the wake-up signal sent by the external controller of the battery system and send the received wake-up signal to the non-isolated dc converter. The wake-up signal is used for waking up the non-isolated DC converter to work.
Specifically, the non-isolated dc converter receives the wake-up signal sent by the wake-up chip, and then converts the voltage of the obtained electric energy, and provides the electric energy for the logic chip by using the converted voltage.
In a specific implementation, the power for waking up the chip is provided by an isolated dc converter in the battery management unit using the converted voltage.
Secondly, if the CAN converter has the wake-up function, the non-isolated DC converter receives the wake-up signal sent by the CAN converter.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the CAN converter has a wake-up function, that is, the CAN converter has a function of receiving a wake-up signal transmitted by a controller outside the battery system, and further has a function of transmitting the received wake-up signal to the non-isolated dc converter. The wake-up signal is used for waking up the non-isolated DC converter to work.
Specifically, the non-isolated dc converter receives a wake-up signal sent by the CAN converter, and then converts the voltage of the obtained electric energy, and provides the electric energy for the logic chip by using the converted voltage.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the battery management unit may further include a second load.
In a specific implementation, the non-isolated dc converter further provides power to the second load using the converted voltage after receiving the wake-up signal.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the second load may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a logic circuit, a control chip, a driving circuit, and other electronic components.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the voltage used by the first load is the voltage of the electric energy provided by the battery pack in the battery system, and the voltage used by the second load is the voltage converted by the non-isolated dc converter in the battery management unit.
It will be appreciated that in one particular implementation, how power is supplied to the electronic components in the battery management unit may be determined based on the voltage used by the electronic components in the battery management unit.
For example, assume that the voltage of the power supplied by the battery pack is 48V, and the converted voltage of the non-isolated dc converter is 12V; if the voltage used by the fan in the battery management unit is 48V, the fan is directly powered by the battery pack, and at the moment, the fan belongs to the first load; or, if the voltage used by the fan in the battery management unit is 12V, the fan may not be directly powered by the battery pack, but needs to be powered by the voltage converted by the non-isolated dc converter, and in this case, the fan belongs to the second load.

according to the power supply method of the battery management unit provided by the embodiment of the invention, through improvement of the internal circuit in the battery management unit, the power supply of an additional power supply outside the battery system to the battery management unit is cancelled, the battery pack in the battery system supplies electric energy to the battery management unit in the battery system, a complex circuit structure which needs to be considered when the battery management unit is supplied with power by the additional power supply outside the battery system is avoided, and the circuit structure inside the battery management unit is effectively simplified, so that unnecessary electric quantity waste is avoided, the equipment cost and the power supply cost are saved, and further, the problems of complex circuit structure, electric quantity waste and cost loss caused by the fact that the additional power supply is used for supplying power to the battery management unit in the prior art are solved.
