Characteristics¶
Note - Regarding Accuracy and Performance¶
ALIARO’s battery cell emulator/simulator, the AL-4010 can simulate the battery cells by generating cell voltages and it can measure (sense) the emulated / simulated battery cell voltages and compensate for the voltage drop that might be caused by losses in the cables.
When verifying or validating a battery management system (BMS) both the accuracy and precision when measuring and simulating the battery cells are important specifications. Other specifications that might be of interest include sensitivity, resolution and performance in a setup where the cells are connected in series (stacked).
