Validate and Extend Battery Life
Analyzing the current drain and conducting run-down battery tests of your designs pose several difficulties. The manual process of charging and discharging a battery is time-consuming, and it's crucial to test it at different charge levels as battery characteristics vary. Furthermore, battery parameters and charge levels must be identical when comparing test results. Achieving this is very challenging with physical batteries. Additionally, it is difficult to determine how long a device will last on a single charge, and often battery life claims do not match reality.
Keysight designed the E36731A battery emulator and profiler and BV9211B advanced battery test and emulation software to solve these challenges. This demo video guides you through the process of using the solution to verify and prolong the battery run time of your device.

Battery Emulator FAQ
What is a battery emulator and how does it work?
A battery emulator is a device that simulates the behavior of a real battery. It works by providing a controlled and programmable electrical load to mimic the characteristics of a battery during various charge and discharge cycles.
How does a battery emulator assist in testing?
The Keysight battery emulator and profiler is an integrated electronic load and power supply designed for use with Keysight PathWave BenchVue battery emulation software. It serves as an emulated battery, providing a known good reference for testing at various charge levels.
How does a battery profiler differ from a battery emulator?
While a battery emulator simulates the electrical behavior of a battery, a battery profiler focuses on monitoring and analyzing the performance of a real battery. Profilers provide insights into factors such as voltage, current, and temperature during different operating conditions.
What is the significance of emulating different battery charge states?
Emulating different battery charge states enables you to simulate real-world scenarios and understand how your device performs under various levels of charge. This capability is crucial for evaluating the effectiveness of design modifications on battery life.
What is the Keysight E36731A battery emulator and profiler?
