Keysight Battery Emulators

Videos

This video introduces Keysight Battery Emulators, a complete solution for battery profiling, emulation, and device power‑consumption analysis. These systems emulate real battery behavior under dynamic load conditions, eliminating the unpredictability, variability, and safety risks associated with physical batteries. Ideal for R&D teams developing smartphones, wearables, sensors, and IoT devices, they enable detailed evaluation of device energy usage, battery performance, and power‑optimization strategies.

Battery emulation provides precise voltage, current, and internal‑resistance behavior modeling, allowing engineers to test devices under controlled and repeatable operating conditions. The integrated battery profiler creates a digital twin of a real battery, enabling accurate analysis of how a device consumes energy across varying states of charge and operational modes. A built‑in cycling function automates repeated charge‑discharge sequences to simulate battery aging effects and evaluate long‑term device performance.

Keysight battery emulators combine power‑supply and electronic‑load functionality in one instrument, enabling seamless testing of both power‑delivery electronics and the devices they power. When paired with Keysight’s advanced battery test and emulation software suites, users gain access to automation tools, graphical visualizations, waveform‑based testing, and complex discharge‑profile simulation—supporting development workflows from early design to system‑level validation.
 

Key features include:

  • Battery Emulation: Simulate real battery behavior with high accuracy under dynamic load conditions.
  • Integrated Battery Profiler: Create a digital twin of a real battery for detailed consumption and performance analysis.
  • Aging Simulation: Automate repeated charge/discharge cycles to model long‑term battery aging.
  • Built‑In Electronic Load: Test both power‑delivery systems and powered devices with a combined supply/load instrument.
  • Software Integration: Use advanced test and emulation software to run complex battery‑test sequences and visualize results.
     

Keysight battery emulators deliver a complete battery profiling and emulation solution, enabling safe, repeatable, high‑accuracy device testing for modern portable electronics and IoT systems.
