This document describes the JDI Battery Management System (BMS), specifically the BI51 TYPE series, which includes models BI5116, BI5132, and BI5148. This system is designed for electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid vehicles, offering comprehensive battery management capabilities.
Function Description
The JDI BI series BMS is an integrated battery management system that detects, manages, and controls batteries. It is suitable for various cell chemistries, including LiCoMnNiO2, LiFePO4, Ni-MH, and super capacitors, with cell voltages ranging from 0 to 5V. The system can manage batteries in single boxes and can be extended to manage batteries across several boxes through Battery Module-management Units (BMUs).
The core unit of the BMS is the Battery Integrated-management Unit (BIU), which collects battery information and analyzes it for management. Key functions include:
- State Estimation: Dynamically estimates State of Charge (SOC), State of Health (SOH), and State of Power (SOP) based on total current, total voltage, temperature, and other parameters.
- Current Detection: Real-time charge and discharge current detection using a Hall current sensor or diverter.
- Voltage Detection: Real-time single cell voltage detection and total battery pack voltage detection.
- Temperature Detection: Collects battery module temperatures via NTC temperature sensors (1-4 sensors per 16 cells).
- Communication:
- CAN-bus: Equipped with three CAN-bus interfaces (CAN0 for CSU and real-time current, CAN1 for charger, CAN2 for VCU/MCU).
- RS485: Used for external display of SOC, voltage, and current, and for program updates.
- Internal Communication: Communicates with other modules, charging devices, and vehicle systems.
- Warning and Protection: Conducts alarms and protection based on sampling information and state estimation results through built-in control strategies.
- System Self-check: Checks the function and state of each unit to ensure system safety.
- Control Output: Six relay control interfaces for charge, discharge, and auxiliary equipment.
- Digital Input: Four digital input interfaces for external digital control signals (e.g., active High, ACC, ON, Charging awaken).
- Analog Input: Three analog input interfaces for external analog control signals.
- Insulation Detection: Tests total voltage and positive/negative leakage current of the battery pack, alarming when insulation resistance falls below a threshold.
- Pre-charge Module: Controls load charging by pre-charging the main circuit load. AUX+ can control external pre-charge.
- Key Information Power-down Saving: Saves critical system data (Max&Min voltage, corresponding cells, SOC, current, history errors) upon detecting battery pack power-down.
