A battery management system (BMS) is disclosed. In one embodiment, the BMS includes i) a first switching circuit electrically connected to a battery cell or a battery pack and configured to provide a voltage of the battery cell or the battery pack, ii) a capacitor electrically connected to the first switching circuit and configured to store the voltage provided from the first switching circuit and iii) a second switching circuit electrically connected to the capacitor and configured to provide the voltage stored in the capacitor, wherein the second switching circuit has first and second output terminals. The BMS may further include a pull-down circuit electrically connected to the second switching circuit, and configured to reduce impedance at the first output terminal of the second switching circuit.
