CELL EQUALIZATION TECHNIQUES
Abstract
Two modes of operation for a stabistor charge control circuit (1) thermal coupling the stabistor to the cell and (2) thermal isolation of the stabistor from the cell are discussed. Thermal coupling was demonstrated in circuits BCC-2 and BCC-3, where the former cycled for 2700 cycles and the latter for 785 cycles. Thermal isolating was demonstrated in circuit BCC-4 which cycled over 400 times. Preliminary investigations indicate that a germanium power transistor may be used more effectively as an antireversal diode than the germanium diode now being used.
