Two-Wire vs. Four-Wire Resistance Measurements: Which Configuration Makes Sense for Your Application? Most precision digital multimeters (DMMs) and many Source Measurement Units (SMUs) offer both two-wire and four-wire resistance measurement capabilities. However, these two techniques are not equally well suited for all resistance measurement applications.This article offers a quick overview of how to determine the most appropriate technique for a

Application Notes : The Fundamentals of Battery Test Battery pack and module testing is more critical than ever. Today’s engineers face new challenges including increased complexity of the tests and set-ups, long development and test times, addressing safety requirements, and avoiding hazards. Furthermore, testing to the application requires emulating real-world conditions by responding to communication signals from the battery, system

The Evolution of EV Battery Test Approaches ​ The EV battery market is moving toward increased automation to reduce complexities for the user and speed up workflow. As the demand for better battery designs increases, engineers need to have automated solutions for testing R&D, production, and post-manufacturing objectives. Software is becoming more critical to manage data seamlessly, to align with market

4 Key Testing Phases for Power Conversion Equipment While the types of electrical tests required during the design and production of power conversion equipment are similar to those required for previous generations of devices, the adoption of wide-bandgap materials like silicon carbide (SiC) or gallium nitride (GaN) requires added rigor and new test strategies. Bench testing continues to play an important
