Abstract
Cell selection circuit is provided between n cells connected in series, where n is an integer of 2 or more, and inductor, and is provided at both ends of the selected cell and both ends of inductor can be conductive. Clamp circuit includes at least one clamp switch for forming a closed loop including inductor in a state where cell selection circuit does not select any cells. Current detection circuit detects the value of the current flowing through inductor. Low-pass filter band-limits the detection value. Overcurrent detection circuit activates the protection of inductor when the band-limited detection value exceeds the threshold.
