UPS systems have been designed from the beginning to protect critical loads from common disturbances in commercial networks: voltage variations (“overvoltage, undervoltage, surges”), slow or transient frequency variations, blackouts and micro-blackouts, voltage sags, transient impulses (“spikes”), harmonics, superimposed high-frequency noise and voltage fluctuations (“flicker”), among others.

Ingeteam and BYD have tested and certified in their respective R&D laboratories the compatibility of BYD's Battery-Box Premium HVS and HVM high-voltage batteries with Ingeteam's INGECON® SUN STORAGE 1Play TL M hybrid inverter (photovoltaic + batteries).
The combined use of both devices allows for the creation of hybrid systems that combine photovoltaic generation and energy storage, without the need for additional photovoltaic inverters. Furthermore, the Ingeteam hybrid inverter, in combination with BYD batteries, enables operation in off-grid mode, backup (UPS) mode, and self-consumption mode. Thus, in grid-connected installations, it becomes possible to store the solar energy generated during the day for consumption at night, achieving the highest possible self-consumption rates without the risk of power outages during grid failures, thanks to the backup (UPS) mode capability.
BYD's high-voltage lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, with capacities ranging from 5.1 kWh to 22.1 kWh (depending on the model), are designed for residential and commercial use. Their patented modular connection design allows different battery modules to be connected without wiring, greatly simplifying and speeding up installation. Specifically, the BYD battery models compatible with the Ingeteam hybrid inverter are: HVS (5.1, 7.7, and 10.2 kWh) and HVM (8.3, 11.0, 13.8, 16.6, 19.3, and 22.1 kWh).
The Ingeteam inverter allows you to connect both a battery bank and two photovoltaic arrays to a single unit, reducing the overall system cost. It features two photovoltaic inputs, each with its own Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) system, enabling it to manage up to 11.5 kW of solar panel power that can be installed on a roof with two orientations. This single-phase inverter, available in 3 or 6 kW versions, is transformerless and designed for residential and commercial installations. Furthermore, this inverter comes standard with the EMS control system, allowing for advanced functionalities without the need for any additional control devices.
Hybrid system monitoring is carried out easily and intuitively thanks to the software developed by Ingeteam: INGECON® SUN Monitor, which allows access to all the data of the photovoltaic installation, batteries, etc., so that the user has total control over their electricity consumption.

Smart factories worldwide are leveraging advanced automation applications such as augmented reality, autonomous mobile robots, cobots, and industrial sensors. Even beyond the traditional production floor, automation is accelerating in environments like warehouse and logistics through similar applications. These new ways of working are practical today because hardware improvements provide real-time network connectivity, high-performance processing, high reliability, low power consumption, and interconnection flexibility.

In most linear power supplies, voltage and current limits are entered using rotary knobs. I was looking for faster and higher precision, so I wanted to design a lab power supply for my bench where the voltage and current limits were entered via a keypad. I added a microcontroller to handle the keypad input functions, but I wanted the basic power supply to be linear: no switching and less noise.

Currently, embedded security systems are essential. Attackers can access tools very cheaply, so it's common for them to exploit vulnerabilities in IoT devices. Furthermore, in today's environment, there are a large number of remotely connected devices, so if they manage to compromise a single target device, they can gain access to the entire IoT installation.
