Learn about BMS test techniques using commercially available cell simulation hardware that increase safety, efficiency, repeatability and coverage
Many battery and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of battery-electric products utilize actual Li-ion battery cells for testing electronic systems, including the battery management system (BMS). There are significant limitations with this approach in the various stages of product design, development and production. This paper presents BMS test techniques using commercially available cell simulation hardware for improved safety, efficiency, coverage and cost.
