Introduction to battery-management systems at Coursera Course details
- This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5730, part of CU Boulder?s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.
- This course will provide you with a firm foundation in lithium-ion cell terminology and function and in battery-management-system requirements as needed by the remainder of the specialization. After completing this course, you will be able to:
- - List the major functions provided by a battery-management system and state their purpose
- - Match battery terminology to a list of definitions
- - Identify the major components of a lithium-ion cell and their purpose
- - Understand how a battery-management system ?measures? current, temperature, and isolation, and how it controls contactors
- - Identify electronic components that can provide protection and specify a minimum set of protections needed
- - Compute stored energy in a battery pack
- - List the manufacturing steps of different types of lithium-ion cells and possible failure modes
