Bringing intelligence to battery management systems Texas Instruments (TI) has introduced the industry's highest-cell-count battery monitor with an integrated electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) engine, bringing predictive intelligence, comprehensive data, and real-time diagnostics to battery monitoring in EVs and energy storage system (ESS) applications The BQ79826Z-Q1 battery monitor can improve safety and extend battery life by detecting potential failures from within battery cells. The single chip provides the highest-cell-count monitoring in its class, tracking up to 44% more channels than previous generations. This increase in channels enables the device to reduce the number of components required in a battery pack, decreasing system complexity and cost without compromising reliability. TI is set to showcase its innovation at the 2026 Power Conversion, Intelligent Motion Expo and Conference (PCIM), June 9-11, in Nuremberg, Germany. Wenjia Liu, vice president and general manager, battery management systems (BMS) at TI, said, "The electrification of transportation and the rapid expansion of energy storage are redefining what battery performance must deliver, and as a leader in battery management technology, TI is uniquely positioned to meet that challenge. Our high-cell-count battery monitor with a built-in EIS engine helps 'shine a light' inside battery cells...
