B+K precision adds a 4-channel, ±1500 VDC input module to its DAS1800 data recorder. Today’s electric vehicles operate at voltages approaching 1000 VDC, engineers need to monitor and record those voltages during tests. to that end, B+K Precision has added the D18-HVM4 high-voltage, 4-channel input module to its DAS1800 modular data recorder. The D18-HVM4 adds […]

How to use remote sensing for DC programmable power supplies
In this FAQ, you’ll learn how to know if your test application needs sensing and how to properly wire a power supply to a load. Calibrating certain sensing circuits, such as those used in electric vehicles (EVs), is critical to get right. An inaccurate calibration of an automotive battery monitoring circuit could, for example, allow […]
How to test the automotive SENT protocol
Oscilloscopes and dedicated software can help analyze SENT data. In “What is the automotive SENT protocol?” we looked at the Single Edge Nibble Transmission (SENT) protocol, as defined in accordance with the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) J2716 standard. We reviewed the SENT message frame, which includes a synchronization/calibration pulse followed by a status nibble, […]
