An assembled-battery voltage detection device for detecting a voltage at an assembled-battery including a plurality of single batteries connected in series includes: single-battery voltage detection circuits detecting voltages at the respective single batteries; single-battery voltage detection terminals connected to ends of the single batteries; connectors connecting the single-battery voltage detection terminals and the single batteries; voltage detection terminals detecting a voltage at one of the single batteries located at one end in the assembled battery; an assembled-battery voltage detection circuit detecting a potential difference between the voltage detection terminals; a single-battery voltage sum calculator calculating a sum of the voltages detected by the single-battery voltage detection circuits; an end-battery voltage abnormality determination unit determining whether the voltage at the single battery located at the end is 0 V; and an abnormality output unit outputting an abnormality depending on predetermined conditions.

Assembled-battery voltage detection device

An assembled battery management system has an assembled battery having a plurality of battery modules connected in series, wherein each of the battery modules has a plurality of battery cells connected in series, a connection member that connects the plurality of battery modules, and a battery voltage detection device that detects voltages of the battery cells. The battery voltage detection device has a monitoring section having a voltage detector that detects the voltages of the battery cells, wherein the monitoring section monitors the voltages of the battery cells based on a detection result of the voltage detector, and a plurality of voltage input terminals connected to the monitoring section. Each of the battery modules includes a plurality of voltage detection terminals connected to a positive electrode and a negative electrode of each of the modules as well as connecting points of the battery cells.

Battery voltage detection device, assembled battery management system

A photo detection device, which is disposed in a vehicle, includes a first photo detection element that detects light and a first signal processing unit that performs a predetermined process based on a detection result of the first photo detection element. The photo detection device also includes a first board on which the first photo detection element is mounted and a second board on which the first signal processing unit is mounted. Additionally, the photo detection device includes a holding member that holds the first board and the second board and a housing that accommodates the holding member. The holding member holds the first board and the second board such that the second board is arranged in a second plane different from a first plane in which the first board is arranged.
