LR43 battery!Rimac applies ADI precision battery management system to electric vehicles

Rimac applies ADI's precision battery management system to the electric vehicle field - Analog today announced that Rimac Automobili plans to apply ADI's precision battery management system (BMS) integrated circuit (IC) into Rimac's BMS.

Beijing, China – Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) today announced that Rimac Automobili plans to use ADI’s precision battery management system (BMS) integrated circuits (ICs) in Rimac’s BMS. ADI’s technology enables Rimac’s BMS to extract maximum power and charge from the battery by reliably calculating the state of charge and other battery parameters at any given time.

Rimac CEO Mate Rimac said: "Rimac is a technology powerhouse in high-performance electric vehicles. We develop and manufacture key electrification systems for many car companies around the world, while our own supercars also set a higher standard for electric vehicle performance. The benchmark. The BMS we use is an extremely demanding application in the world, which requires extremely high accuracy, drastic changes in current and voltage within a very short time, and rapid dynamic adjustments within the battery management control system. We decided to implement the entire battery The management system product line uses ADI's battery management IC product portfolio. ADI's IC products are an important part of our independently developed BMS, which are not only used in our own cars, but also in many car brands around the world. We Comparative testing of this type of IC has been conducted on the market, and the results confirmed that ADI's products can provide precise measurement accuracy and product reliability throughout the entire life cycle of the car, so it was selected by us. We look forward to cooperating with ADI in the future. Enabling high-performance BMS in our vehicles and battery packs."

Rimac C_Two is a pure electric supercar with a top speed of 412km/h. C_Two's engine has 1,914 horsepower, 0-96km/h acceleration time is 1.85 seconds, and 0-300km/h acceleration time is 11.8 seconds. To support these high-performance outputs, the Rimac team designed and built outstanding underlying technologies, such as electric drivetrains and battery packs.

BMS technology acts as the "brain" behind the battery pack, managing output, charging and discharging, and providing precise measurements during vehicle operation. BMS also provides important protection against battery damage. A battery pack is made up of multiple independent cells that work seamlessly together to provide the vehicle with maximum power output. If the battery cells are out of balance with each other, they can become stressed causing premature termination of charge, which in turn shortens the overall life of the battery. ADI's battery management ICs provide highly accurate measurements, allowing vehicles to operate more safely and maximize range per charge.

Patrick Morgan, vice president of the Automotive Electrification and Infotainment Group at Analog Devices, said: "High-performance electric vehicles require highly accurate electronics. High accuracy directly translates into fast charging times, maximized battery capacity and range. We are very excited to use Our precision battery management ICs power Rimac's leading electric vehicle systems to achieve superior performance worldwide."

Analog Devices offers a broad range of precision battery management ICs that support a variety of battery configurations and battery types in a wide range of applications across a wide range of industries. In addition to electric vehicle battery management systems, it also includes applications such as on-board chargers (OBC), high-power electric storage systems (ESS), backup battery systems, and high-voltage data acquisition systems.
