Figure 4-2. Evaluating with Charge or Discharge Current
4.4 Evaluating with Simulated Current
describes connection for basic operation. Providing more than
recognizable current in that configuration can require a power supply with a significant power rating. Applying a
charge current can damage some power supplies.
shows a method to force current through the
control path without a high wattage power supply or special equipment. The
load
power supply should be set at
a low voltage in a constant current mode. Polarity can be reversed on the
load
supply to simulate a charge
current. The battery simulation supply must never be reversed.
