September 2023 Multi-Cell Battery Simulators from Pickering


CHELMSFORD, MA — Pickering’s battery simulators are ideal for Electric Vehicle (EV) battery stack emulation in Battery Manage- ment Systems (BMS) test applications. The modules occupy a single PXI or PXIe slot, and enable direct voltage and current read- back either programmatically or using Pick- ering’s soft panel control. Each cell simula- tor is highly accurate, specified at ±5 mV from 1 to 7V. The module range features up to six bat-


tery cell simulators in a single slot module. Each simulator can sink or source current. The accuracy of the output voltage is greatly improved over the previous generation, something that is very important in simulat-


ing newer battery technology. With an isola- tion specification of 1,000 kV, one can build a BMS test system that supports up to 90 cells of battery simulation, all contained within a single PXI or PXIe chassis. The modules can be combined with any


of Pickering’s other PXI switch and simula- tion modules such as high voltage switching, fault insertion, thermocouple simulation and RTD simulation, and other vendors’ PXI modules such as a CANbus interface to cre- ate a fully flexible BMS test system. Pickering Interfaces offers an extensive


range of PXI, LXI, and USB switch and sim- ulation modules optimized for automotive electronics, including ECU testing, Hard-


ware-in-the-Loop Simulation (HILS), battery management systems (BMS) test, sensor and strain gauge emulation, environmental test- ing, instrumentation management, signal conditioning, RF & microwave, switch simu- lation and automotive load management. The company’s PXI and PXIe multi-cell


battery simulator range is ideal for battery stack emulation with the advantage of a modular/scalable platform. With an isolation specification of 1,000V, users can build a test system supporting up to 100 cells of battery simulation, contained in a single 19-slot PXI


or PXIe chassis. Contact: Pickering Interfaces, 221

Brewer Science Expands Vichy Mfg.


Center VICHY, MO — Brewer Science, a global leader in developing and manufacturing next-generation materials and products for the semiconductor industry, has an- nounced the expansion of its Vichy Manufacturing Center with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The expansion of the Vichy


Manufacturing Center, a substan- tial 50% increase in footprint, will be utilized for increased advanced manufacturing capacity, as well as expanded packaging and ware- housing capabilities. Emerging resilient from the


challenges posed by the global pandemic, Brewer Science demon- strated unwavering dedication in navigating supply chain disrup- tions and inventory complexities. Throughout the pandemic, Brewer Science remained steadfast in meeting customer demands while continuing to drive innovation. The companhy earned Intel’s


2023 EPIC Distinguished Supplier Award,which is a testament to the company’s firm commitment to ex- cellence and ingenuity. The Vichy location stands as


a strategic cornerstone, boasting excellent transportation infra- structure and providing easy ac- cess to shipping routes on both coasts due to its central location. This expansion further ce-


ments Brewer Science’s role as a driving force in advancing the semiconductor industry and fos- tering economic growth in the


U.S. Midwest and beyond. Contact: Brewer Science,
