Abstract: A battery pack includes a secondary battery; and a protection device including: a measurement unit coupled to the secondary battery and configured to measure a temperature and a voltage of the secondary battery; a temperature estimation unit coupled to the measurement unit and configured to estimate a future temperature of the secondary battery; and a charging/discharging unit coupled to the secondary battery and configured to adjust a current or an input voltage applied to the secondary battery based on the future temperature and the voltage of the secondary battery.

Abstract: A battery pack and a power generation circuit in the battery pack are disclosed. The battery pack includes a battery cell unit including battery cells connected in series, a charge/discharge switch connected between the battery cell unit and charge/discharge terminals, a charge/discharge controller controlling the charge/discharge switch to charge or discharge the battery cell unit, and a voltage converter electrically connected in parallel to the charge/discharge switch and dropping a voltage of the battery cell unit, and outputting the dropped voltage as power of the charge/discharge controller.

Abstract: A battery protection system includes a first battery, a first line coupled to a first electrode of the first battery, and a second line coupled to a second electrode of the first battery, the first and second electrodes being of opposite polarity, a measurement unit measuring a voltage at first and second measurement terminals, the first measurement terminal being connected to the first electrode by the first line, the second measurement terminal being connected to the second electrode by the second line, and a protection unit controlling a voltage of the first battery according to a generated voltage, the generated voltage being determined by adjusting the measured voltage according to a first voltage drop across the first line, a second voltage drop across the second line, or both the first voltage drop and the second voltage drop.
