The BS-08F Series 8-Channel Battery and Charger Simulator
Description
The BS-08F series 8-channel battery and charger simulator is programmable, and ideal for battery simulation and performance testing in power tools, and fast charging sources. The channels in the simulator are fixed, and they are isolated from each other, allowing multi-channel series connections. The simulator is designed with a standard 19-inch 2U height, suitable for system integration and desktop applications. It features ultra-fast transient response, variable output resistance for accurate battery simulation, and measures DC current to monitor power consumption of the devices under test (DUT). It also includes digital voltmeter (DVM) functionality, removing the need for a separate voltage measurement instrument. The simulators can act as stand-alone programmable DC power supplies and/or electronic loads for test stations, experiment laboratories, and research organizations.

Main Features
High-power, wide-range measurement that are suitable for various applications
The BS-08F series is designed with fixed 8-channel and high power density, with each channel capable of up to 100W to meet the need for various battery characteristic simulations. It features an ultra-fast dynamic response of less than 500µs.
Isolated channels, enabling series simulation of battery pack operating states
Each channel's battery cell simulation is mutually isolated, allowing for series simulation of battery pack operating states. Multiple simulators can be combined to simulate larger power battery packs.
HD color touchscreen operation
The BS-08F series features colored high-performance touchscreen display, with a main screen displaying 8 channels.
Four-wire connection method to eliminate the resistance of the remote measurement lead
Using a four-wire connection method in which two lines are used for outputting voltage, and the other two directly measuring the voltage of the device under test. By measuring the lines through the SENSE terminal, the voltage drop caused by lead resistance between the battery simulator and the DUT can be eliminated.
Battery characteristics simulation
Real battery simulation, automatic switching between charging and discharging states, internal resistance simulation, suitable for conducting charge and discharge tests on various types of portable batteries. It can also simulate the charge and discharge characteristics of batteries to assist in various other tests. This instrument serves multiple purposes, streamlines testing equipment, and optimizes testing processes.
Accurate testing of leakage currents and idle currents
Its current feedback has a maximum resolution of 100nA, with current accuracy of 0.1%. It can provide the precision required to monitor the leakage and idle currents in today's and future battery-powered products during sleep modes.
