ROADTEST POLL: Would You Be Interested in Roadtesting a Battery Emulator and Profiler

rscasny
rscasny over 3 years ago

imageI plan on roadtesting this board in June.

Here are some details about the product:

E36731A battery emulator and profiler is an integrated electronic load and power supply developed to use with Keysight PathWave BenchVue battery emulation software. An emulated battery gives you a known good reference for testing at any charge level. Quickly assess the effect of design or software changes on battery life by emulating any battery charge state. Leverage emulation and precise current drain analysis to achieve longer battery life or to reduce the size of your device.

Here are some Features:

  • Instantly emulate any battery charge state and display real-time current drain data
  • Generate accurate battery profiles using the simulated current drain of a device
  • Instantly emulate any battery charge state and display real-time current drain data
  • Achieve accurate battery run-down tests by emulating your device’s current drain
  • Estimate battery aging effects to predict device performance throughout its lifetime
  • Streamline your workflow with an integrated power supply and an electronic load

Here is the documentation:

    It is! also the accuracy, 0.05% + 7.2 mA.

    20 amps - that is quite a beast.

    I attended a webinar several weeks ago from Keysight about this battery emulator and the first thing I wished after the webinar was: I wish it appears in a roadtest some time soon Smiley. Well the wish got granted. I have been working with batteries extensively at work for the past few years, so this is something that interests me a lot. All this time I have been using discrete instruments (power supplies, DC electronic loads, aging testers) to do the testing, so having all the functionality in one instrument will be very interesting and a huge time saver. Will be looking forward to this one.

    I voted no because I don't have the necessary knowledge, but it is a device that I would need at work, so I am very interested in reading good roadtests that do justice to the device.

    I would like to roadtest this equipment, I have some experience with batteries and BMS. This equipment would be a nice add to my lab and to increase my knowledge in batteries.

    Mark me down for yes. We've been looking for a better way to test battery life for wireless applications other than the "set it and check back in a week" approach.

    Oh how different we both are ... I love batteries and testing them is fun ... until the lab burns down that is. Oh lithium ion, why so volatile?

    But I guess it's just my curiosity that leads me to wonder just how long certain batteries would last on cycling and how their capacity changes over time/temperature.

    This looks like something we could use at work. I have to say I am not a fan of batteries and testing them is not my idea of fun, but batteries have their uses so anything that can help deal with them is a great  thing.

    I would love to have a go on this, moreso to compare to the more advanced cyclers and setups we use at work

    I would be very interested in testing this device.

    I picked up a bunch of batteries at a garage sale and this device would let me experiment with them.
