  • Plug And Play Battery System
    Publication number: 20110037427
    Abstract: The present invention provides an energy storage device for spacecraft application. The energy storage device includes an energy storage component including a plurality of cells. Each cell has a minimum shelf life. The energy storage device also includes a first interface to an external power source configured for charging of the energy storage component, a second interface to a spacecraft for outputting power from the energy storage component and a third interface for communicating to spacecraft. The energy storage device further includes a charge controller operatively coupled with the energy storage component and the first, second and third interface. The charge controller includes an internal power supply configured to provide power for the charge controller. The charge controller also includes a microprocessor incorporating a firmware to accommodate a system configuration of the energy storage component.
