Abstract:
A battery control system architecture design system that stores an objective function. The battery control system architecture design system determines implementation of battery systems intended be compatible with a battery control system architecture; determines target control levels to be provided by battery control systems based at least in part on the implementation of the battery systems; determines target functions to be provided by the battery control systems based at least in part on the implementation of the battery systems; determines infrastructure expected to be used to provide each of the target functions; and determines the battery control system architecture by dividing the target functions between the target control levels based at least in part on the objective function and the infrastructure, in which the battery control system architecture provides building blocks used to implement each of the battery control systems.

Abstract:
The present subject matter relates to a battery module 22 for use in a vehicle 10. The battery module 22 may include a housing 50, a plurality of battery cells 54 disposed within the housing 50, and solid state pre-charge control circuitry 159 that pre-charges a direct current (DC) bus 160 that may be coupled between the battery module 22 and an electronic component 161 of the vehicle 10. Furthermore, the solid state pre-charge control circuitry 159 may include solid state electronic components as well as passive electronic components.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a battery module for use in a vehicle is presented. The method may include disposing battery cells into a lower housing and disposing a lid assembly over the battery cells. The lid assembly may include a lid and bus bar interconnects disposed on the lid. The method may also include disposing a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly onto the lid assembly and electrically coupling portions of the lid assembly, portions of the PCB assembly, and the battery cells to each other.
