The newly launched family of battery simulator modules is ideal for emulating electric vehicle (EV) battery stacks in battery management system (BMS) testing applications. The 41-752A (PXI) and 43-752A (PXIe) modules allow for direct voltage and current readings, either programmed or using Pickering's soft panel control. Each cell simulator is highly accurate, specified at ±5 mV from 1 V to 7 V.
Targeting EV, automotive, aerospace, energy storage, and electric aircraft applications, the new battery simulator modules occupy a single PXI slot. They are available with two, four, or six battery cell simulators per module, fully isolated from ground and from each other, facilitating series connection for simulating batteries in a stacked architecture. The 750 V isolation barrier allows the modules to be used to simulate lower-power battery stacks commonly used for vehicle propulsion. Battery charging emulation is available up to 100 mA.
Also on display at the booth will be:
New 12-slot BRIC configurations for two popular PXI matrix switch models. The 1Amp 40-562B BRIC12 modules can accommodate up to 18 matrix daughter cards with up to 3168 crosspoints. The 0.5Amp 40-558 BRIC12 modules can also accommodate up to 18 matrix daughter cards, offering up to 9216 crosspoints, making them the highest-capacity PXI matrix switch module in the industry.
eBIRST Switching System Test Tools – Designed specifically for Pickering PXI, PCI, or LXI products, these tools simplify switching system troubleshooting by quickly testing the system and graphically identifying the faulty relay.
Cable Design Tool – A graphical online tool used to create custom cable solutions for a wide range of applications. Features include an integrated library of standard cable assemblies that can be used as a basis for customization or defined from scratch. The tool allows for highly detailed design features, including connector type selection, cable type, pin definitions, pin and wire labeling, cable grouping, length selection, sleeving, comments, and much more.
At Pickering booth 452 in Hall A1, visitors can also learn about the latest developments on various LXI chassis, a new 8-slot Express chassis, several PXI FI, simulation, RF, and microwave modules, PXIe precision resistor boards, and a 65-200 chassis with various pluggable cards.
