6 FAQs about [6-string lithium battery pack]

Can a lithium ion battery pack have multiple strings?

Whenever possible, using a single string of lithium cells is usually the preferred configuration for a lithium ion battery pack as it is the lowest cost and simplest. However, sometimes it may be necessary to use multiple strings of cells. Here are a few reasons that parallel strings may be necessary:

What is a battery pack?

They may be configured in series, parallel or a mixture of both to deliver the desired voltage, capacity, or power density. Packs are identified by cell size, number of cells, battery structure, chemistry, chargeability, capacity, and voltage rating. Lithium-Ion Battery Products - Battery Packs are in stock at Digikey.

Why should lithium ion strings be paralleled?

This is essential to prevent the strings from runaway in the event of imbalance between cells or a cell failure. Never leave two lithium ion strings permanently paralleled or leave multiple strings paralleled without monitoring systems and a means of automatic disconnection.

Why is a single string battery set-up important?

A single weak or bad cell can exponentially lower the capacity of the entire battery pack. A properly engineered system can improve the overall reliability, but only when additional equipment and significant engineering time is invested. Whenever possible, a single string set-up should be considered.

Should a battery pack be paralleled?

Paralleling strings together greatly increases the complexity of managing the battery pack and should be avoided unless there is a specific reason to use this configuration. In this setup, each string must essentially be treated as its own battery pack for a variety of reasons. In a below example, 2 strings of 8 cells each are placed in parallel.
