Abstract :
This paper describes an intelligent system for testing batteries under full-controlled conditions, based on a personal computer (PC). Developed system is able to perform all type of charging/discharging processes. Moreover, with this system the evolution of main parameters involved in battery charging/discharging processes are obtained. An specific software for system control has been developed. Designed program performs full equipment control and full process management. Also, program provides additional advantages: data storing, data processing and waveform graphical representation
