Week 8 Multi cell Battery Pack

  How weakest cell limits the usable capacity of the battery pack? What is the solution?   Weakest cell limits the usable capacity of the battery pack, which is called imbalance of the battery pack. To avoid that we need to balance the battery pack. Common multiple cell configurations for Li-Ion cells in…
