  • Publication number: 20240230780
    Abstract: A signal injection unit configured to inject an AC signal to an target injection line to which a battery is connected in series, a non-contact-type current sensor that detects a current value of the AC signal flowing through the target injection line in a non-contact manner with respect to the target injection line and outputs a detection signal, a voltage detection unit that detects a voltage value of an AC voltage generated at ends of the battery by being in contact with the ends and outputs an end-to-end voltage signal, and a processing unit that measures an internal impedance of the battery on the basis of the detection signal and the end-to-end voltage signal. The signal injection unit is configured to inject the AC signal to the target injection line in a non-contact manner.

  • Patent number: 11522530
    Abstract: A waveform shaping circuit includes a capacitor, an impedance element, a switch circuit, and a switch control circuit. Opposite ends of the capacitor are connected to the input and output, respectively. One end of the impedance element supplies a target constant voltage to the output end of the capacitor. The switch circuit has a switch without a diode. When on, the switch applies the target constant voltage to the output. When off, it does not. The switch control circuit switches the switch on during a high voltage period in an AC component of an input pulse signal and switches the switch off during a low voltage period of the AC component. The circuit shapes the input pulse signal into an output pulse signal whose peak-to-peak voltage is equivalent to a peak-to-peak voltage of the AC component and whose voltage during the high voltage period is at the target constant voltage.

  • Patent number: 11349464
    Abstract: A waveform shaping circuit is configured without including a diode that is affected by temperature. The waveform shaping circuit includes: a capacitor with one end into which a differential signal Vd0 is inputted and another end connected to an output; an impedance element that has one end connected to the other end of the capacitor and another end into which a target constant voltage is applied; a switch circuit that is constructed of a series circuit with an impedance element and a switch without including a diode, has one end connected to the output, and has another end into which the target constant voltage is applied; and a switch control circuit that shifts the switch into an on state during a low voltage period in an AC component of the differential signal and shifts the switch to an off state during a high voltage period of the AC component.
