Patent number: 10730402Abstract: An electrical control system is provided. A first slave IC generates a first message indicating that a first battery cell has an overvoltage condition that is received by a communication IC. The communication IC sets a fault line coupled between the communication IC and a secondary microcontroller to a first logic level indicating that an overvoltage condition has been detected. The secondary microcontroller sends a message to a primary microcontroller indicating that the overvoltage condition has been detected in response on the fault line having the first logic level. The primary microcontroller commands a contactor control system to set each of the first and second contactors to the open operational state, in response to receiving the message.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2017Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: LG Chem, Ltd.Inventor: Edvin Godo

Patent number: 10249912Abstract: An electrical control system having a primary microcontroller, a secondary microcontroller, a slave IC, and a communication IC is provided. The communication IC sets a fault line to a first logic level indicating that an overvoltage condition has been detected in a battery cell. The secondary microcontroller sends a message to the primary microcontroller via a communication bus indicating that the overvoltage condition has been detected in response to the fault line having the first logic level. The primary microcontroller determines that both the message from the second microcontroller was received and the fault line has the first logic level to confirm that the communication bus is functioning as desired and that the secondary microcontroller is functioning as desired.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2018Date of Patent: April 2, 2019Assignee: LG Chem, Ltd.Inventor: Edvin Godo
