Creating a Battery Discharge Model with a 2450 Source Measure Unit and Simulating the Battery with the 2281-20-6 Dynamic Model Battery Simulator

A 2450 SourceMeter SMU Instrument will be programmed to discharge a battery and create a model of the battery for use in the 2281S-20-6 Battery Simulator.  The model consists of both open circuit voltage and internal resistance as a function of the battery's state of charge.  The battery simulator will then emulate the battery using the created battery model.  The battery simulator can then be used to test a product under realistic, but repeatable and efficient, testing conditions to see how the product performs when powered by a battery under various conditions of discharge.
