Arbin Instruments

The BT11-HSP (High Speed Pulse with 1 microcontrol er and 1 DC power supply per channel) is designed to perform sub-mil isecond pulses on bat eries or super capacitors, which are common in wireless or telecommunication applications.

Arbin’s pulse capability covers a broad range of sub-mil isecond communication profiles, which can handle multi-stage pulses as fast as 100 microseconds per stage and up to 10 stages per pulse. The pulses have a maximum length of 2700 seconds.

Each channel of the system functions as an independent potentiostat/

galvanostat. Commonly used charge/discharge functions such as ramps, staircases and constant current, voltage, power, and load functions may be used independently on al channels at the same time. The BT11-HSP

al ows the user to run independent pulse and simulation profiles on each channel simultaneously.

The circuit is a bipolar design that af ords tremendous flexibility by ensuring cross-zero linearity with no switching time. Our MITS Pro Software further enhances al these capabilities, which according to customer feedback is a step above al other software in the industry.

Burst mode operation al ows user to log data at a very high rate for a maximum time of 500 mil iseconds. Up to 300 points per pulse can be logged across a maximum of 10 stages per single pulse. This application can be useful in instances where fast data logging is required to catch voltage and/or current data during a transition. By capturing more data, the pulse profile can be more accurately defined, especial y during the charge/discharge transition period (see software screen below). This helps to identify transition in the charge/discharge process of the objects being tested.

Current (A)

Outputs constant current to the cel or bat ery at the value specified. Positive current refers to charge, and negative current refers to discharge.

Voltage (V)

Outputs constant voltage to the cel or bat ery at the value specified C-Rate

C-Rate is common method for indicating the discharge as wel as the charge current of a bat ery.

It can be expressed as I=M*C where I=current A; C=bat ery capacity; M is the C-rate value Rest

The bat ery is disconnected from the charge/discharge circuit but remains connected to the voltage measurement circuit to enable open-circuit voltage measurement Power (W)

Outputs constant power to the cel of bat ery at the value specified. This is accomplished by iteratively measuring the bat ery voltage and calculating the current necessary according to Ohm’s law in order to achieve the power level set by the user. Each time the channel is sampled, the calculation is performed al owing the current to quickly stabilize at the desired BT11-HSP

Arbin Instruments provides a wide variety of auxiliary modules for expanding the capability of the main I/V control circuitry.

Input Modules:

Auxiliary inputs can be used to record desired data as wel as to terminate or regulate charge and discharge processes based upon measured conditions. Selectable inputs are of V

(voltage), T (temperature), and P (pressure).

Input / Output Modules Digital I/O is an integrated peripheral on/of control. The output commonly is used to control valves and switches. The input al ows external control signal to control testing procedure.

Control Modules:

Arbin provides control modules for auto-calibration, Smart Bat-tery Testing, External Charger, Temperature Chamber interface and AC impedance measurement.

For more information please visit: www.arbin.com/products/accessories/auxiliaries.htm

*Auxiliaries are provided in a separate chassis, controlled by the same PC as the test station.

Several safety provisions are provided in every Arbin system. There are multiple 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. This al ows the user to enable auto resume options to al of specific channels after a stop due to power interruption. Provision is provided for the user to intervene if they so desire before the channels resume. This is an essential component for any user with an unreliable power source unless the whole facility is on backup power.
