TIAX has developed Cel-X™ cell-balancing hardware and software to improve the safety, capacity, and pack life of lithium-ion batteries. Using a non-dissipative approach that regulates and balances the state-of-charge of the individual cells that form the pack, Cel-X protects Li-ion battery packs from the detrimental effects caused by the unbalanced distribution of charge across cells. As a result, the available pack capacity is not limited by the lowest capacity cell—a significant advantage over conventional dissipative approaches to cell balancing.
Cel-X delivers the following key benefits:
In Portable Applications:
- Maximizes runtime
- Reduces capacity fade over time
- Reduces battery stress and damage
- Improves safety
In High-Power Applications:
- Maximizes available power
- Controls warranty costs
- Improves safety
- Extends runtime
