EA321 - Power management

This module presents the power conversion architectures that enable energy management. Particular attention is paid to the topologies used in energy storage systems (interleaved choppers, multi-output fly-back, SEPIC converters, push-pull stages for drivers). It also covers the operating principles and use of integrated circuits dedicated to the functions of recharging, balancing, health assessment, monitoring and control of batteries (lithium-ion, supercapacitors), source hybridization converters, and the implementation of energy management and recovery strategies.

This theoretical approach is illustrated by concrete examples through exercises and by four practical assignments with mixed-mode software on the following topics:
- Switching power supply and LDO for charging a lithium-ion cell.
- Buck-Boost converter used for balancing supercapacitor cells.
- Low-voltage inverter for wireless energy transfer.
- Energy recovery system based on a photovoltaic source with MPPT control.

This module introduces the power conversion architectures that allow energy management. Special attention is paid to the topologies used in energy storage systems (interleaved choppers, multi-output fly-backs, SEPIC converters, push-pull stages for drivers). It also deals with the operating principles and the use of integrated circuits dedicated to the functions of recharging, balancing, health status evaluation, monitoring and control of accumulators (lithium-ion, supercapacitors), source hybridization converters, implementation of energy management strategies, energy recovery.

This theoretical approach is illustrated by real examples through exercises and by four pratical works with mixed-mode software dealing with:

1. Switched-mode power supply and LDO to charge a lithium-ion cell;
2. Buck-Boost converter used for supercapacitors cells balancing;
3. Low voltage inverter for wireless power transfer;
4. Energy harvesting system based on photovoltaic source with MPPT control.
