Voltage detecting circuit

Abstract

A voltage detecting circuit includes a switch group that selects any one of a plurality of battery cells connected in series, a sampling capacitor that maintains a potential difference between a positive electrode terminal and a negative electrode terminal of a battery cell selected by the switch group, a measuring part that outputs a detected voltage value signal corresponding to the potential difference between ends of the sampling capacitor, a transfer switch that transfers, to the measuring part, the potential difference caused between the ends of the sampling capacitor, a correction capacitor provided in parallel to input terminals of the measuring part, and between the transfer switch and the measuring part, and a discharge switch provided in parallel to the correction capacitor, and controlled so that a switching condition of the discharge switch is mutually exclusive with that of the transfer switch.
