Product Overview

The Keithley 2306 Dual-Channel Battery / Charger Simulator was designed specifically for development and test applications of portable, battery-operated products, such as cellular and cordless telephones, mobile radios, and pagers. It has an ultrafast transient response so it can have output characteristics identical to actual batteries. The Keithley 2306 Dual-Channel Battery / Charger Simulator employs a unique variable output resistance so the voltage output can emulate a battery’s response. It provides stable voltage outputs, even when a device-under-test (DUT) makes the rapid transition from the standby (low current) state to the RF transmission (high current) state. In addition, it can monitor DUT power consumption by measuring both DC currents and pulse load currents. The Keithley 2306's battery charger / simulator channel can be programmed to operate like a discharged rechargeable battery, sinking current from a separate charger.

Features and Specifications of the Keithley 2306 Battery / Charger Simulator include:

• Ultrafast response to transient load currents
