About the Course

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5730, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree. This course will provide you with a firm foundation in lithium-ion cell terminology and function and in battery-management-system requirements as needed by the remainder of the specialization. After completing this course, you will be able to: - List the major functions provided by a battery-management system and state their purpose - Match battery terminology to a list of definitions - Identify the major components of a lithium-ion cell and their purpose - Understand how a battery-management system “measures” current, temperature, and isolation, and how it controls contactors - Identify electronic components that can provide protection and specify a minimum set of protections needed - Compute stored energy in a battery pack - List the manufacturing steps of different types of lithium-ion cells and possible failure modes...

I loved the Course. Please go for it if you are really interested in batteries or want an upper hand in E-mobility battery research, this lays a strong foundation!!

Thanks a lot Gregory Sir!!

I was able to gain new knowledge, but I also wanted to dig deeper. For example, how to set the upper and lower limits of DOD, and cell characteristics / life consideration points at that time. It is especially disappointing that the question remains unsolved even after the end because the answer to the quiz cannot be confirmed.

Very useful and well presented course. I would have preferred more consideration of the wider variety of applications for Li ion batteries, which may place different importance on different aspects of the BMS, rather than primarily considering the needs of electric vehicles, but it was mentioned at the beginning.

I think, this course is the beginning of the battery management systems topic. I recommend this specialization to learners who would like to get information about battery technologies. Maybe, you can find difficult first, the more you learn, the easier it will be to understand. Keep it up!

The course was very good ... every detailed information was shared with me by the professor and I got to learn many new things about the battery management system. The only thing was that the forum session was not that active as expected which resulted into more efforts to clear the doubts.

The course content is really very helpful. the initial lectures related to cell chemistries were a bit boring considering the course is about bms but eventually it will be helpful in future as one should be aware of what type of cells the bms is going to work on.

El curso esta muy bien planteado, pero cuando se explica el uso de las ecuaciones y cálculos no es tan claro por lo que debería incorporarse una parte de explicación con código matlab o manejo de alguna ecuación explicada por el docente; eso facilitaría el curso.

This course is pretty good, especially with regard to the main requirements of BMS. It covers also important ideas about cell manufacturing which makes it super for engineers who are going to work in the field. I highly recommend this course.

It is a good introductory course, and starts with the very basics in order to have a complete knowledge. Some of the exercises are very challenging, but are necessary in order to make sure that one performs the correct calculations.

It is a very good and informative course. As an introduction to a new topic, difficulty has been set in a good manner. It seems that lecturer has spent great deal of time on this course. It is not like an online course. Thanks.

I don't know why Indivisual course is not submiting it asking for upgrade to specialization, At least provide indivisual Course Certification/Let me submit my Quiz at least.

Course Updrade is required but over all good Content.

A quality course with Fantastic Content. The only area it lacks in is participation from faculty in forum discussions and enough solved examples. I hope the rest of the specialization is better in terms of these aspects.

A good overview of what goes into the making of a BMS. I'm simultaneously trying to do the second course of this specialization and I haven't found any major requirement to do this course to understand the next one.

Good course to fresh up our concepts in electro chemistry and i learned a lot of new content thanks to the instructor but it is advised to watch it in a higher playback speed than normal

It's a good course with excellent illustration, it just needs more examples to add more valid ways of calculations. Even thou it was a very challenging course. I enjoyed!

The course is really good for a beginner who wants to study LIB. The course will be perfect if the professor could explain more how to use the fomulars.

The course gives an excellent introduction to the basics of BMS. The quiz at the end of each week provides a good opportunity to test our understanding.

Very good basic introduction to batteries. Thoroughly explained, but videos also allow to skip ahead if you are already familiar with some content.

The course is well structured, the topics are presented and explained in a clear way. The exercises should be improved with some examples.

It is a really good course but the discussion forums and the doubt concept clearing from the course coordinators must be heavily improved

This course is really good for the basic introduction of BMS. It would be great if the quizzes are given with the review solutions

It gives a Brief explanation of BMS for beginners but the advanced parts move a little faster and get hard to understand

Slides could be a little more detailed to facilitate reviewing work without having to go back through the videos
