Abstract
A method of assigning a communication ID and a battery pack providing the method are disclosed. The battery pack may include: a plurality of slave BMSs to manage a plurality of battery modules having a plurality of battery cells; and a master BMS to control the slave BMSs to charge the battery modules after a predetermined battery module is discharged, and to receive data for each battery cell indicating a first cell voltage before the charging and a second cell voltage after the charging. The master BMS may determine a battery module including a low-voltage battery cell having the second cell voltage lower than the first cell voltage as a battery module located at a higher potential adjacent to the discharged battery module and estimate a connection order of the battery modules, and may assign a communication ID of each of the slave BMSs based on the estimated connection order.
