Technology and product overview
Flow of zinc/manganese oxide secondary battery
(high-performance battery) development
1988
Tokyo Institute of Technology Yamamoto Laboratory develops prototype of zinc/manganese oxide secondary battery.
It became possible to charge and discharge, but the number of cycles is about 30 times.
10 years later
1998
The Kim & Oh team at Seoul National University in South Korea will continues to research electrolytes.
Succeeded in extending the charge/discharge cycle up to 120 times.
14 years later
2012
The Kang team of Tsinghua University, China presented a paper. Get noticed at once.
However, the principle is extremely complicated and has not yet been elucidated.

The Sakata-Furutsuki Laboratory of the University of Tokyo investigates the principle of zinc/manganese oxide secondary batteries. Succeeded in extending cycle durability to over 10,000 times with newly developed technology.
Some of the research results have already been published in the journal of the Royal Society of ChemistryJournal of Materials Chemistry A has been announced in
Realized super-large size because it does not use anything that may catch fire or explode.

[BMU-M design concept]
A description of the concept related to the design and selection of the BMU-M.
1) Control characteristics: We specialize in charge/discharge characteristics of zinc/lead manganese oxide batteries made by Japan Volta.
2) BMU master board basic specifications
charge management
Using a charger (CC/CV method) manages the full charge of the assembled battery to avoid overcharging
Discharge management
Manages the overdischarge avoidance of the assembled battery according to the voltage behavior characteristics during discharge
Balance to cell voltage
Balancing the voltage difference between battery cells (series system)
control
temperature control
Monitors temperature changes and controls circuits such as main circuit shutdown to protect the battery when the temperature is high or low
SOC estimation
Estimates the charge amount of the assembled battery using a unique calculation method
*SOC: State of Charge, CC : Constant Current, CV : Constant Voltage
3) BMU slave board basic specifications
・Periodically monitor the operating status of battery cells obtained from electronic devices for measurement, and the status of thermistors and thermal fuses.
・The monitored data is sent in response to periodic requests from the BMU master board.
・When an instruction from the BMU master board or detection of communication interruption with the BMU master board is detected, the main circuit of the unit is cut off.
・According to the instruction from the BMU master board, activate the element for voltage balance control between battery cells.
