Intelligent, ultra-robust BMS for high-energy battery packs
Advanced BMS for 4 to 10-cell battery packs
Empowering next-gen high-energy battery packs
Empowering next-gen high-energy battery packs
Modern battery designs demand intelligence, safety, and longevity. As industries shift to high-density Li-ion and Li-polymer packs for e-mobility, power tools, and industrial equipment, the BMS becomes the heart of the system. To succeed, engineering teams must deploy architectures that maximize pack lifespan and ensure hardware survives from day one of assembly. Here’s how the L9962 addresses critical design challenges and helps your project achieve market-leading reliability.
Why standard BMS fail - and how the L9962 delivers
- Constraint: extended storage can cause high parasitic drain, reducing the cell state of charge.
- L9962: drops to 2 µA in Deep Sleep mode and 2.5 µA in standby, maximizing total shelf life.
- Constraint: production line voltage transients cause critical electrical overstress.
- The L9962: features native hardware immunity, eliminating the need for external protection networks.

Accelerate with MathWorks model-based design
Our collaboration with MathWorks streamlines BMS design by integrating ST’s ecosystem directly into your model-based design environment. You can define control logic within Simulink, generate optimized C-code for STM32 MCUs, and perform real-time validation via HIL.
To put this into practice, leverage our HIL Development Kit that combines our L9962 evaluation board (EVL9962) with the STM32G071RB Nucleo-64 development board (NUCLEO-G071RB) to create a robust, production-ready environment for rapid firmware deployment and HIL testing.
