Application note
Digital multimeters are one of the most overlooked workhorse testing tools across industries. With more electrical components and self-driving features being added to cars, digital multimeters are used in all the manufacturing processes in the automotive industry.
The electric motor, inverters, and battery pack are all critical components of an electric vehicle (EV). The key competitive differentiators for an EV are typically the powertrain, battery capacity, and charge time, as these will be deciding factors for the consumer when purchasing an EV. A faulty or poorly designed battery can reduce performance and reduce battery service life.
This application note describes the use cases of battery cell testing for energy storage in automotive applications, particularly for EV battery manufacturers that rely on digital multimeters. Read this application note and learn about key digital multimeter criteria to perform open circuit tests, short circuit tests, and make temperature test measurements for the manufacturing process of electric vehicle batteries.
