A FASTER, more EFFICIENT, and FLEXIBLE way to test device batteries.
BatteryFlex is a platform for evaluation and characterization of a wide range of battery cells and battery packs used in electronic devices and small electronics.
BatteryFlex relies on instrumentation in a PXI chassis platform, which allows for the addition of unlimited input or output signals, controls, or measurements. Combined with user-made sequence scripts and playback of real-world simulated load scenarios, the capabilities of BatteryFlex are defined by you.
