Development of a Test Module for Battery Quality Monitoring using Voltage Recovery
Keywords:
battery, test module, voltage recovery, qualityAbstract
Several portable machines depend on the batteries as a source of power that is why their quality should be given importance. Battery health monitoring is crucial to know equipment’s maximum productivity. There are several studies that focused on this field with different approach and used expensive equipment. This paper presents a method for monitoring the quality of the battery using voltage recovery based on off the shelf components and Arduino-based microcontroller and sensor modules. Nine rechargeable Li-Ion 18650 batteries formed in 3 sets of parallel and 3 sets of series to form a battery pack were connected to a test module for simulation. The circuit design for the test module was constructed in LTSpice using a 555 timer and IRF530 MOSFETs to monitor the batteries’ quality over time and later used in the experimental application in the health monitoring of the batteries.
