Abstract
This application relate to a rechargeable battery monitoring system, a battery pack, and an electric vehicle. A rechargeable battery includes battery units and an MSD switch. The battery units are serially-connected, and the MSD switch is connected between adjacent battery units. The monitoring system includes a BMU and an equal number of CMCs that have one-to-one correspondence with the battery units. The CMCs are divided into CMC groups that meet preset conditions. The monitoring system further includes an equal number of daisy chain buses that are in one-to-one correspondence with the CMC groups. Each CMC group is connected to the BMU through one daisy chain bus. This embodiment helps a battery pack and an electric vehicle to avoid damage caused by a chip on the CMC in a process of plugging or unplugging the MSD switch, and help the CMC accurately monitor the battery units in the rechargeable battery.
