Description

The LT8584 is a monolithic flyback DC/DC converter designed to actively balance high voltage stacks of batteries.

The high efficiency of a switching regulator significantly increases the achievable balancing current while reducing heat generation. Active balancing also allows for capacity recovery in stacks of mismatched batteries, a feat unattainable with passive balance systems. Ina typical system, greater than 99% of the total battery capacity can be recovered.
