Description
Powerful and Precise Battery Simulation for Automotive Testing
The CAR AWG 6000 Battery Simulator is HILO-TEST’s flagship solution for precise and repeatable battery voltage simulation. Designed for EMC testing on vehicle supply lines, this 4-quadrant system provides the performance required to meet the most demanding international standards like ISO 7637-2, ISO 16750-2, LV 124, LV 148, and manufacturer-specific protocols (BMW, VW, GM, Ford, etc.).
Advanced EMC Testing Capabilities
Built to simulate real-world disturbances, the CAR AWG 6000 can generate dynamic voltage events such as:
- Pulse 2b and Pulse 4
- Engine starting profiles
- Superimposed AC ripple
- Custom voltage variations
With up to ±70V and 200A output, it easily covers high-current applications, including modern EV and hybrid powertrains.
Waveform Generation with High Resolution
The system features a 14-bit arbitrary waveform generator supporting:
- Sample rate: 20MSa/s
- Memory depth: 16kSa
- Segmented signals: DC, sine, ramp, sweep, exponential
- Bandwidth: DC–1 MHz (small signal), 200 kHz power bandwidth
This ensures highly accurate simulation of complex real-life voltage profiles.
Optimized for Accuracy and Safety
The CAR AWG 6000 ensures exceptional performance and protection:
- Selectable output impedance from 0 to 200 mΩ
- Residual noise output: <62 dBV
- Signal-to-noise ratio: >97 dBV
- Fast slew rate up to 70V/μs
- Active overvoltage and overcurrent protection
- Thermal protection via integrated fans and heat sinks
Seamless Control and Documentation
Using the CAR-Remote software, engineers can:
- Remotely operate the unit via Ethernet
- Execute manufacturer-specific or custom test profiles
- Record waveform responses via Impulse Recording Function (IRF)
- Create standardized test documentation compliant with IEC 17025
- WaveMaster and AnyWave control integration further support waveform generation, visualization, and real-time analysis.
