Power Components for Battery Applications |
Presented by: Travis Williams, Senior Manager; Product Management and Marketing |
Today, many systems from electric vehicles and home energy storage to communications infrastructure, use batteries to enable portable power or provide a fall back in the event that mains power fails. If demands for batteries continue to grow, engineers need an easier approach to designing battery-powered systems. In particular, the output voltage of batteries can vary significantly; power systems must deliver constant voltage to the load and act as a current source to charge the battery; and there is a continual demand for higher efficiency. |
This webinar explains how flexible power components can be used to shorten the design cycle, simplify the power system and reduce cost, weight and size while increasing efficiency. |
This webinar covers: |
Why wide input and output voltage ranges are important | ||
How to design scalable power systems to meet current and future needs |
||
Reducing costs by using flexible components | ||
Maximizing power density and efficiency in systems with batteries |
Who Should Watch? |
This webinar is relevant to any engineer who is responsible for developing systems that use batteries to deliver more than a few Watts. It will also interest technical managers who would like to understand how new approaches to power system design can enhance battery-based systems. |
