- a H level clock signal CLK is provided.
- Signal level of an output signal of the comparator 112 is H level, since a voltage between connecting points PI and P2 does not reach the reference voltage Vref, at timing TO. Therefore, the signal level of the output signal of the NAND circuit 321 becomes L level while the output signal of the NOT circuit 315 becomes H level.
- the signal level of the output signal of the AND circuit 311 is H level since the H level clock signal CLK is provided. That is, at timing TO.
- the signal level of the output signal of the NOT circuit 316 since the signal level of the output signal of the NOT circuit 316 is L level, the signal level of the output signal of the AND circuit 312 becomes L level, then the signal level of the output signal of the NOT circuit 319 also becomes L level. Therefore, the signal level of the output signal of the NOT circuit 317 becomes H level, and the signal level of the output signal of the AND circuit 314 becomes H level. That is, at timing TO, the signal levels of the signal SGI' and the control signal SGI become H level, then the
- the coil L is connected in series with the
- the coil current IL is supplied from the assembled battery 120 to the coil L.
- the signal level of the output signal of the NOT circuit 319 is L level
- the signal level of the control signal SG12 becomes L level
- the switching element S12 is switched off.
- the signal level of the output signal of the AND circuit 313 becomes L level since the signal level of the output signal of the AND circuit 312 is L level. Therefore, the signal level of the control signal SGll is L level, then the switching element Sll is switched . off .
- the output signal of the AND circuit 311 is inverted from H level to L level.
- the L level output signal of the AND circuit 311 is received by the AND circuit 314. Therefore, at timing T2, the output signal of the AND circuit 314 is inverted from H level to L level, and the signal levels of the signal SGI' and the control signal SGI become L level, then the switching element SL is switched off.
- time lag between timing Tl and timing T2 is caused by difference of number of gates through which a signal output from the comparator 112 passes to reach the switching element SCL and through which the signal output from the comparator 112 passes to reach the switching element SL.
- the number of the gates In Fig. 7, the number of the gates
- the number of the gates through which the signal output from the comparator 112 passes to reach the switching element SCL is three, that is, the NAND circuit 321, the NOT circuit 315, and the AND circuits 311.
- a period between timing Tl at which the switching element SCL is switched off and timing T2 at which the switching element SL is switched off is equal to a time required for the output signal of the
- both of the switching elements SL and SCL are the switching elements SL and SCL.
- circuit 316 is inverted from L level to H level, at timing Tl, when the output signal of the AND circuit 311 is inverted from H level to L level. Therefore, the output signal of the AND circuit 312 is inverted from L level to H level.
- circuit 312 is provided at one input terminal of the AND circuit 313. At this time, an electric potential at the connecting point P4 is higher than an electric potential at the connecting point P3, since
- comparator 320 becomes H level.
- the output signal of the AND circuit 313 is inverted from. L level to H level. That is, at timing T3, the signal level of the control signal SGll becomes H level, then the switching
- Time lag between timing T2 and timing T3 is caused, for example, by difference of number of gates through which the output signal of the AND circuit
- the number of the gates through which the output signal of the AND circuit 311 passes to reach the switching element SL is one, that is, the AND circuit 314. Meanwhile, the number of the gates
- element Sll is three, that is, the NOT circuit 316, and the AND circuits 312 and 313.

- the storage status adjusting circuit 110A of the present embodiment connects the secondary battery Bl detected by the lowest voltage detecting unit 141 with the coil L, thereby releasing electricity (energy)
- a gate through which the output signal of the AND circuit 312 passes to reach the switching element Sll is only the AND circuit 313. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the delay circuit 400 is disposed so that the output signal of the AND circuit 312 passes through at least two gates to reach the switching element S12.
- the switching element S12 is switched on later than the switching element Sll, by disposing more gates between the AND circuit 312 and the switching element S12 than
- timings at which the switching elements Sll and S12 are switched on are controlled so that one end, being connected with the connecting point Lb, of the coil L is connected with the positive

Therefore, the negative electrode of the secondary battery Bl (the positive electrode of the secondary battery B2) is connected, through the switching element S12, the coil Ll and the diode Dl, with the connecting point P5, thereby being connected with the B- terminal through the secondary batteries Bl - B . Therefore, the
- the timing at which release of electricity from the coil L is finished is detected based on a potential difference between the connecting point P3 and the connecting point P4. More specifically, in the present
- an electrical potential at the connecting point P3 is compared with an electrical potential at the connecting point P4 by the comparator 320. Then, the storage status adjusting circuit llOA switches off the switching element Sll by an output signal of the comparator 320, when the electrical potential at the connecting point P3 becomes higher than the electrical potential at the connecting point P4, thereby disconnecting the coil L from the secondary battery Bl. In the present embodiment, through such controlling of the switching element Sll, energy back flow from the secondary battery Bl to the coil L is prevented.

- the clock signal CLK becomes H level.
- the signal levels of the signal SG2' and the control signal SG2 become H level at timing T7, and the switching element SCL is switched on.
- a period between timing T7 and timing T8 corresponds to difference of the number of gates between those disposed between the output terminal of the AND circuit 311 and the switching element S12, and those disposed between the output terminal of the AND circuit 311 and the switching element SL.
- an operation of the storage status adjusting circuit 110A of the present embodiment is similar to that at timing TO, and the coil current IL starts to be supplied to the coil L.
- the lowest voltage detecting unit 141 of the present embodiment may detect a secondary battery having the lowest cell voltage during a term between timing T5 and timing T6 at which the clock signal CLK next rises. Also, the lowest voltage detecting unit 141 may detect a secondary battery having the lowest cell voltage during a term between timing T5 and timing T10 at which supply of the coil current IL to the coil L is stopped. The lowest voltage detecting unit 141 of the present embodiment, for example, may detect a secondary battery having the lowest cell voltage in every certain interval.
