Abstract

Provided is an application module provided with a stationary interface, and more particularly, an application module performing functions of a battery management system (BMS), which transceives data from an application module data control device or calls a service module included in a basic program (basic software (BSW) to increase compatibility regarding function execution among one or more modules.

Claims (23)

1. An application module, comprising:

a first plurality of data transceiving interfaces transceiving data from an application module data control device, each of the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces being a different type of interface than the remaining interfaces of the plurality of data transceiving interfaces;

a second plurality of call interfaces configured to call one or more service modules, each of the second plurality of call interfaces being a different type of interface than the remaining interfaces of the second plurality of call interfaces; and

an analog to digital converter input interface capable of receiving an analog to digital measurement value,

wherein the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces comprises a filter interface, a diagnosis interface and a communication interface,

wherein the second plurality of call interfaces comprises a system service interface, a communication service interface, an input/output service interface, and a memory service interface,

wherein the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces connect the application module and the application module data control device so as to write the data in a separate memory included in the application module data control device or read the data written in the memory,

wherein the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces include a write/read interface that allows the data to be written in the memory or the written data to be read,

wherein the second plurality of call interfaces allow a hardware device connected with a plurality of service modules to be executed by calling the plurality of service modules,

wherein each of the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces are configured to:

transceive data from a second application module via the application module data control device,

transmit data to the second application module via the application module data control device, and

execute a function of the application module data control device,

wherein the first application module and the second application module are hardware and software, and

wherein each call interface calls one or more respective service modules included in the basic software (BSW) for operating a battery management system (BMS) and allow a hardware device connected with one or more service modules to be executed.

2. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces include an address value receiving interface receiving an address value for the data written in the memory.

3. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the system service call interface calls a system service module among the plurality of service modules.

4. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the communication service call interface calls a communication service module among the plurality of service modules.

5. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the input/output service call interface calls an input/output service module among the plurality of service modules.

6. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the memory service call interface calls a memory service module among the plurality of service modules.

7. The application module of claim 1 , wherein any of the second plurality of call interfaces among the second plurality of call interfaces are configured to be changed to an additional service call interface calling a remaining service module other than the system service module, the communication service module, the input/output service module, and the memory service module among one or more service modules.

8. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the application module transceives the data with the other application module connected with the application module data control device through the first plurality of data transceiving interfaces.

9. The application module of claim 1 , wherein the data transceiving interfaces transceive data to measure current, voltage and temperature of a battery.
