Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an active charge balancing circuit.SOLUTION: The active charge balancing circuit comprises: a switch device comprising a first terminal, a second terminal, a control input for receiving at least one control signal, and a plurality of cell terminals, each of which is configured to be connected to a tap of a charge storage device that comprises a plurality of charge storage cells connected in series, and a control circuit which is configured to be coupled to the first and the second terminals of the switch device, is configured to selectively connect the first terminal with one of the plurality of cell terminals, is operable to selectively connect the second terminal with one of the plurality of cell terminals dependent on the at least one control signal, and is configured to enable a current flow between the first and the second terminals on the one hand and the cell terminals on the other hand either in a first direction or in an opposite direction dependent on a voltage between the first and the second terminals.
