  • Publication number: 20230331091
    Abstract: A relay control apparatus for a relay including a contact connected between a positive electrode of a battery and a load, and a coil connected between a relay power terminal and a ground in which the contact moves to a closed position when the coil is energized. The relay control apparatus includes a coil control switch which is turned on in response to a first switching signal having a voltage level that is equal to or higher than a first threshold voltage in response to a relay on-command, and a relay holding circuit configured to store emergency power using power supplied from the battery.

  • Patent number: 10324119
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an insulation resistance measuring device and method, including a parameter resistance connected to a negative electrode terminal of a battery; a shunt resistance connectable to the parameter resistance; a current detection circuit including an operational amplifier configured to detect and output voltage between both ends of the shunt resistance; and a control unit configured to determine the insulation resistance of the battery using a switch control terminal configured to control a switch connected between the parameter resistance and the shunt resistance to an ON or OFF state, a detection signal output terminal configured to selectively apply a first high voltage signal and a first low voltage signal to the shunt resistance, a control signal output terminal configured to apply a control voltage signal to the operational amplifier to adjust an output voltage of the operational amplifier within a predetermined range, an ADC connected to an output terminal of the operational
