Lithium-ion cell balancing using auxiliary battery and DC-DC CUK converter

The lithium-ion battery became more popular to use due to its prominent characteristics such as energy density, power density and high terminal voltage of a single cell. However, if there is power regulation issue during the charging and discharging processes, the performance of the battery will be...
