Testing portable, battery-operated devices under real-word conditions demands a DC power supply that can simulate a battery’s performance over a wide range of conditions. Series 2300 battery simulating power supplies can simulate both a battery's output resistance and output voltage response. The dual-channel versions of these power supplies provide one channel to act like a battery and sink current for simulating a discharged rechargeable battery; the other channel supplies voltage for testing a device’s charge control circuitry. The new 2306-LAN Dual-Channel Battery Charger / Simulator provides a LAN communication interface through the added RJ-45 connector on the rear of the instrument.
Ultra-fast response to transient load currents -
Provides output characteristics identical to actual batteries.
Variable output resistance
Allows simulating a battery’s internal resistance.
Pulse peak, average, and baseline load current measurements -
Supports measuring load currents for power consumption verification or analysis.
100nA DC current sensitivity -
Provides the sensitivity needed to monitor the low sleep mode currents of battery-operated products.
Current step measure function -
Supports measuring the load current at each level of a device’s operational states.
