- the initial precharge time may be set to (k*m) times the time constant.
- the processor 150 closes the positive main switch 121 (S770). If the pre-charge time has already been set (S730), after the set pre-charge time elapses from the time the pre-charge period starts, the processor 150 closes the positive main switch 121 (S770). Accordingly, the precharge period ends. In some embodiments, the processor 150 may open the precharge switch 132 after closing the positive main switch 121 (S770).
- the processor 150 measures the voltage of the positive connection terminal (DC (+)) of the battery device immediately before closing the positive main switch 121 as described with reference to FIG. 3, and the positive main switch ( 121), the voltage of the positive connection terminal (DC(+)) of the battery device may be measured.
- the processor 150 measures the voltage of the positive connection terminal (DC(+)) of the battery device measured immediately before closing the positive main switch 121 and the positive connection terminal of the battery device measured immediately after closing the positive main switch 121.
- a target precharge time in the current cycle can be estimated based on the voltage of (DC(+)).
- the initial precharge time may be set.
