BATTERY MODULE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE

The invention relates to a battery module (5) for a motor vehicle, said battery module comprising at least one battery cell (2), a negative pole (21), a positive pole (22), a charging transistor (60) which conducts a discharge current, a discharge transistor (70) which conducts a charging current, and a management system (30) for controlling and monitoring the at least one battery cell (2) and the transistors (60, 70). The transistors (60, 70) are electrically connected in series with the at least one battery cell (2), and a node (25) between the transistors (60, 70) is electrically connected to a supply input (32) of the management system (30). The charging transistor (60) is electrically connected between one of the poles (21, 22) and the node (25), and the discharge transistor (70) is electrically connected between the at least one battery cell (2) and the node (25).
