A guide for engineers balancing performance, reliability, and manufacturability across today’s smart systems By Barry Brents, ...

Battery-powered vehicles are in vogue, making accurate battery-temperature monitoring that much more important. Here's an Idea for Design that will show you how to implement temperature monitoring in ...

When testing cells, temperature can influence many of the cell properties. Therefore, when connecting a cell to a piece of cell test equipment, along with connecting voltage sense leads and ...

A battery management system (BMS) monitors and controls batteries in vehicles such as more-electric aircraft and electric cars. It needs to undergo rigorous tests under nominal and extreme conditions ...

Once a manufacturer knows its chosen tier-one cell design is compliant with ECE R38.3, it incorporates it into modules and battery packs, and testing of these falls under UN ECE 100, which uses very ...

Battery preconditioning—or simply put, battery preheating—is critical before a DC fast charging session, especially in the cold season that we now have in the northern hemisphere. Bringing the battery ...
