Abstract
In a flying capacitor type battery voltage detector on a circuit substrate, a large number of photo MOS switches having performance highly depending from temperature are dividedly disposed on front and back surfaces of the circuit substrate such that the photo MOS switches of the back surface are lying over the photo MOS switches of the front surface. Each of pairs of photo MOS switches connects a pair of surface lines with first and second floating lines to transmit an output voltage of each cell of a battery pack connected with the surface lines to a differential amplifier through a flying capacitor connected with the floating lines. Because of the division of the photo MOS switches on the surfaces of the circuit substrate, temperatures of the photo MOS switches have less dispersion, and an S/N ratio of each signal indicating the output voltage can be improved.
