BMS — Battery Management System Reference

Quick-reference skill for battery management systems, cell monitoring, and pack safety.

When to Use

Designing a BMS for lithium-ion battery packs

Understanding cell balancing (passive vs active)

Implementing SOC/SOH estimation algorithms

Setting up thermal management and protection thresholds

Evaluating BMS ICs and architectures

Commands

intro

scripts/script.sh intro

Overview of BMS — functions, architecture, and why every Li-ion pack needs one.

cellbalance

scripts/script.sh cellbalance

Cell balancing methods: passive (dissipative) vs active (redistributive).

soc

scripts/script.sh soc

State of Charge estimation: coulomb counting, OCV lookup, Kalman filter, impedance.

protection

scripts/script.sh protection

Protection circuits: overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, short circuit, temperature.

thermal

scripts/script.sh thermal

Thermal management — air cooling, liquid cooling, phase change, heating in cold.

communication

scripts/script.sh communication

BMS communication protocols: CAN bus, SMBus, I²C, UART, and data frames.

topologies

scripts/script.sh topologies

BMS architectures: centralized, distributed, modular — and IC selection.

safety

scripts/script.sh safety

Safety standards, failure modes, and functional safety (ISO 26262, IEC 62619).
