Abstract
A battery management system configured to couple to at least one battery module, the battery management system includes a contact configured to couple between the at least one battery module and a machine, a sensor configured to sense an electrical parameter of the at least one battery module, and a control circuit configured to receive an output of the sensor and determine a value of the electrical parameter. The sensor includes an inverting charge pump coupled to receive a positive supply voltage and generate a negative supply voltage, and a differential amplifier coupled to the at least one battery module and supplied by the positive supply voltage and the negative supply voltage, the differential amplifier configured to generate an output representing the electrical parameter.
