Arbin Instruments The Arbin BT-Smart series is a smart bat ery testing system which contains main I/ V channels to charge/discharge a smart bat ery pack, an SMB input board to interact with the pack’s SMBus, and auxiliary temperature channels. Main I/V and SMB inputs are integrated into a single connector eliminating the tangle of wires required for connecting to smart bat eries. Arbin’s Smart Bat ery Testing Systems al ows users to log data from their smart bat ery and compare it to the external data provided by the Arbin Testing System. Testing procedures can be influenced by the data that the Arbin Testing System MODEL VOLTAGE CURRENT acquires, or by the SMBus register values. BT-SMART 12 2V to 25V 10A/5A Arbin’s testing software is also capable of manipulating SMBus registers during BT-SMART 24 2V to 25V 10A/5A testing. All data specified in the SMBus 2.0 or 1.1 data specifications are stored in a database during testing and can be imported into Excel format for easy data manipulation. ■ Independent Programmable control of current, voltage, load and power; providing constant, linear ramp, staircase and other control profiles generated by a specified formula ■ High accuracy of 0.05% FSR control and reading of current and voltage on linear circuitry ■ Fast current rise time of 100us with linear circuitry ■ Single, ful y integrated connector for smart bat eries ■ Synchronized data acquisition through Ethernet TCP/IP communication for SMB board to synchronize data acquisition with the main I/V channels ■ Independent voltage clamp is a powerful hardware control to prevent voltage overshoot, which is particularly critical for Li-bat eries. It al ows the independent control of voltage clamp for each channel. ■ Sliding racks designed for customers to accommodate 12 ~24 packs for convenient mounting/dismounting of the packs. Very Customized design to fit desired requirement BT-SMART +1 979 690 2751 www.arbin.com Arbin Instruments Model Number: BT-SMART 12 BT-SMART 24 ■ Our MITS Pro Software for Smart Bat ery integrates the capability to view/read, write, control or program information from the Smart Battery Register. The software provides advanced test scheduling options by al owing SMBus registers to be used as limit control and of ers many programmable features. ■ Smart Battery Channel View GUI is a uniquely designed window that al ows users to display or access both main I/V channel parameters and SMBus registered data. The software provides advanced test scheduling options by al owing SMBus registers to be used as limit control and of ers many programmable features. ■ Limited control of SMBus register functions displayed as meta-variables that can be used to end or re-direct testing sequences. Smart Battery values may be selected as control limits within test protocols, much in the same way as using parameters from the I/V channel. ■ This system is tested with most of the commonly employed gas gauge ICs, such as Texas Instruments, BQ 2000 series: BQ2060, BQ2083, BQ2040, and Power Smart, PS401, etc. MODEL NUMBER BT-SMART 12 BT-SMART 24 Arbin Software MITS Pro 4.0 Standard Types of Control Current and voltage control via constant, ramp, staircase, or user-defined formula Constant power, constant load End Conditions Time, Voltage, Current, Capacity, Energy, ∆V, DV/dt, Formula, Meta-Variables, and other combinations Data Logging Rate Current, voltage, or power 40-150 data points per second, per PC simulation, response in seconds Simulation for Non-Formulated Profile n/a Current, voltage, or power simulation, response in seconds Network Capabilities TCP/IP access for networking provided Data Result File Imported into Microsoft Excel; Arbin’s Excel Data Pro macro included for easy data manipulation BT-SMART +1 979 690 2751 www.arbin.com Arbin Instruments Model Number: BT-SMART 12 BT-SMART 24 MODEL NUMBER BT-SMART 12 BT-SMART 24 Number of Channels 12 Channels 24 Channels Chassis Size 30” X 30” X 45” 30” X 30” X 77” Voltage Range (max/min) 2V to 25V Voltage Accuracy (0.05% FSR) ±25mV Voltage Resolution 16 bit or 0.0015% Current Ranges and Accuracy (0.05% FSR) 10A ± 10mA 5A ± 5mA Minimum V at Maximum Current 2V @ 10A Voltage Input Impedance ~10Ω Current Rise Time 100µS Current and Voltage Resolution 14 Bit or 0.006% Voltage Clamp Individual channel-based Voltage Clamp Number of Auxiliary Temperature Channels n/a 24 with Type K thermocouple sensors Max Continuous Power per Channel 250W Internal Board Circuitry Arbin 2243-2 bipolar board Ventilation Method Air cooled Room Operating Temperature 10 to 35 degrees C Connection for Computer TCP/IP PC with 22” flat-screen monitor is included, Computer Specifications preloaded with our MITS Pro testing software Smart Battery Supported Chips TI BQ2060; TI two-chips: BQ20894 & BQ20Z70, TI one-chip: BQ20Z45, (Texas Instruments, Renesas and Maxim) Renesas one-chip and two-chip, and Maxim one-chip.* * If your chip(s) is not listed, please consult with your Arbin Sales Engineer. BT-SMART +1 979 690 2751 www.arbin.com Arbin Instruments Model Number: BT-SMART 12 BT-SMART 24 Arbin Instruments provides a wide variety of auxiliary modules for expanding the capability of the main I, V control circuitry. Optional Auxiliary Voltage: Can be used to measure and verify the cel voltage; These auxiliary channels can be assigned flexibly to the main I/V channels, including one-to-one map or one-to-many map. Optional Auxiliary Temperature: Can be used to measure and verify the cel temperature; These auxiliary channels can be assigned flexibly to the main I/V channels, including one-to-one map or one-to-many map. Optional Thermal Chamber Allows user to program dif erent temperatures testing condition with thermal chamber to Controller Interface: simulate environment testing conditions. Optional External Charger in Built-in constant voltage external charger - Some SMB packs require an external charger with Main I/V Channel: a constant DC voltage supply. This option provides this capability without an additional power supply. External Charging connection - A selected external charging connection al ows SMB bat ery charged by any external charger. During external charging, Arbin tester functions as a record-er to log in the testing data, voltage, current, etc. Either built-in charger or external y connected charger is integrated in MITS Pro Software and programmable. Automatic on/of of charger - The charge/discharge power wil be physical y disconnected while discharging/charging respectively to guarantees no interference. Optional High Speed Pulse Allows users to run a sub-second single or repeated pulse profile. This option provides the Capability: capability to run GSM, CDMA, TDMA or other custom designed pulses. For more information please visit: www.arbin.com/products/accessories/auxiliaries.htm Several safety provisions are provided in every Arbin system. There are three levels of fusing provided inside the system for further protection at the channel, board, and power supply levels. The software also has several safety functions with which the user can avoid over charging the cel s, over discharging, overheating, etc. Smart UPS: This option uses a very smal Smart UPS to back up power to the computer only. It al ows users to enable the auto-resume option to al or specific channels whenever tests have stopped due to power interruption. Provision is made for the user to intervene if required before the channels resume after power failure. This option is almost a must for facilities with unreliable power sources, unless the entire facility is under backup power.
