The Customer
A well-known battery manufacturer that develops lithium batteries for international electric vehicle manufacturers.
The Challenge
When researchers use Differential Voltage Analysis (DVA) to identify the aging mechanisms of lithium-ion batteries, they face the following challenges in obtaining a clear DVA curve:
- Present charging and discharging equipment lacks voltage and current precision and accuracy.
- The DVA curve and its characteristic peaks must be clearly recognized through the smoothing algorithm.
- Creating the smoothing algorithm is time-consuming and poses risks of over-modification and distortion of data.
Results
Chroma Battery Reliability Test System 17010 provided the customer with optimal quality at the best price:
- Designed with high-resolution (18-bit) ADC and low-noise measurement circuit so users can accurately identify the curve peaks directly from the test data.
- Systematic summary of the root causes and extent of battery decline reduces the resources needed for developing curve smoothing algorithms and the costs needed for test equipment.
