N83580
8CH Battery Cell Simulator
Multi-channel battery cell simulator for precise cell and CMS testing.
The N83580 series is a high-precision multi-channel battery cell simulator with up to 8 bidirectional channels, designed for advanced BMS, CMS, and battery development testing. It supports voltage ranges of 0–5 V / 0–6 V / 0–15 V, currents up to ±5 A per channel, and voltage accuracy up to 0.6 mV, enabling highly realistic cell emulation. Its dual-quadrant design allows realistic charge and discharge simulation, making it ideal for active/passive balancing tests, BMS chip validation, consumer electronics testing, and ATE environments. Features such as battery simulation, SOC models, internal resistance simulation, fault simulation, and integrated DVM measurement reduce external hardware requirements and simplify test setups. With up to 8 channels in a compact 2U 19" rack design, the system saves valuable rack space while enabling efficient multi-channel testing. LAN, RS232, and CAN interfaces ensure seamless integration into automated test systems and production environments.
