Abstract
A DC power system includes a first interface to a DC source and a second interface coupled to the first interface and to a load. A battery control system (BCS) has an input/output interface coupled to the first interface and to the second interface, and a series arrangement of switched controllable units of one or more battery cells, each switchably bypassable according to a control signal. The BCS selectively sources and sinks power to variably control a voltage at the input/output interface utilizing the plurality of switched controllable units under control of a BCS processor that produces the control signal. The BCS sources power from the switched controllable units to supply power to the load in addition to, or in lieu of, the DC source, and regulates performance of an external circuit by dynamic variation of the voltage at the input/output interface according to the control signal.
