Battery Charger/Simulator, BCS6401, BK PRECISION

The BCS6401 battery charger/simulator and precision DC power suppliy is optimized for testing batteries and battery-operated devices. It features source/sink capabilities, a bipolar output, and variable output impedance to charge, discharge, or simulate batteries used in portable and wearable electronic devices. The battery function can be set to charge, discharge, or simulator mode.

This product also serves as a precision DC power supply with exceptional transient response times, high current readback resolution, and low ripple/noise characteristics due to its linear design. To handle rapid load changes, the fast output speed setting optimizes transient response time while minimizing overshoot and output recovery time.

Features

• Dual channel and dual range operation
• Perform battery charge, discharge, cycling, and simulation tests
• Bidirectional capabilities in battery mode to simulate a rechargeable battery
• Bipolar output
