Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

Designed to reproduce lithium-ion cell behavior, the PXIe-4154 supports source/sink operation and programmable output resistance. These capabilities help model a battery's internal resistance and response to changing load current.

NI identifies RF power amplifiers, cellular handsets and other mobile devices as relevant devices under test. Integrated current measurement supports investigation of quiescent and standby current.

Separate battery simulator and charger simulator channels.
Programmable output resistance for modeling battery behavior.
Four-wire remote sensing.
Integrated current measurement with 1 µA current sensitivity.

FAQ

Product-specific questions

Product-specific answers based on available technical information.

Are both channels rated for 6 V and 3 A?

No. Channel 0 provides 0–6 V with up to 3 A source current; channel 1 provides 0–8 V with up to 1.5 A. Combined output current cannot exceed 3.1 A.

Can the PXIe-4154 model a battery's internal resistance?

Yes. Its programmable output resistance supports modeling the internal resistance of a battery.

Which driver supports the PXIe-4154?

NI specifies NI-DCPower, with version 1.5 as the earliest supported release. Check the selected driver's operating-system and application-software requirements separately.
