[0021] System overall architecture and communication design: The lithium battery internal resistance test system provided in this embodiment adopts a modular design. Its seven subsystems exchange data in real time via a CANopen bus (1Mbps transmission rate, using the TJA1050 transceiver). The power subsystem and the control and measurement subsystem are connected via a dedicated shielded twisted-pair cable, with signal latency ≤1ms. The differential amplifier subsystem in the auxiliary subsystem and the measuring instrument are connected via coaxial cable, ensuring the acquisition of 10μV voltage signals without attenuation. The core control unit utilizes an STM32H743VI microcontroller (480MHz main frequency) coupled with an AD7606 16-bit synchronous sampling ADC (200kSPS sampling rate) for high-precision data acquisition. The power subsystem and the control and measurement subsystem are linked to achieve: 1. Power supply topology and precision control: The power subsystem adopts the front-stage PFC switching power supply (model LRS-1000-48) + post-stage linear adjustment circuit structure: Voltage output module: Extended by TI's LM317T three-terminal voltage regulator and filtered by a 20000μF / 63V electrolytic capacitor, it achieves continuous adjustment from 0-50V with a voltage ripple of ≤500μV. Current output module: The low current range (0-1A) uses the OPA549 power op amp to form a constant current source, and the high current range (1-100A) uses the IR2110 to drive the IGBT (model FF300R12ME4) to form a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit with an efficiency of ≥95%; PID algorithm implementation: The control subsystem adopts an incremental PID algorithm with parameters configured as Kp=2.5, Ki=0.1, and Kd=0.05. The output current is sampled in real time by the ADC, and after PID calculation, the PWM signal is driven to adjust the power supply output, achieving ±0.1% current accuracy control. 2. Differential amplification and signal acquisition: The differential amplifier subsystem uses the AD8221 differential amplifier from Analog Devices, configured in 1000x gain mode: The input stage uses 0.1% precision thin film resistors (1kΩ / 1MΩ voltage divider network) to ensure a minimum resolution of 10μV; The measurement circuit adopts the Kelvin four-wire system, with the voltage sampling line and the current line wired separately (spacing ≥ 10mm), eliminating the ±0.5mΩ measurement error caused by lead resistance; The control subsystem controls the analog switch ADG1608 through the SPI interface (clock frequency 10MHz) to achieve automatic on-off of the test loop, with a switching time of ≤50μs. Frequency variation subsystem and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy: 1.DDS frequency synthesis implementation: The frequency change subsystem uses the AD9833DDS chip as its core to construct a 10mHz-10kHz sweep frequency signal source: Frequency resolution reaches 1mHz, and the frequency sweep strategy can be configured through the control subsystem (such as collecting 100 data points every 10 times the frequency); The output signal is buffered by the OPA2227 op amp and injected into the test loop. The AD8302 phase detector is used to synchronously collect the amplitude and phase of the voltage and current. The data storage and processing subsystem uses the ARMCMSIS-DSP library to implement 1024-point FFT transformation, uses the Hanning window function to reduce spectrum leakage, and extracts the real / imaginary parameters of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). 2. Impedance spectrum analysis process: When the control subsystem executes the frequency sweep algorithm, it generates the internal resistance-phase characteristic curve according to the following logic: Starting from 10mHz, increase the frequency in logarithmic steps to 10kHz; Apply 100mA test current at each frequency point and collect 100 sets of voltage and current data; Perform FFT transformation on the data and calculate the impedance modulus and phase angle at the frequency; The Randles equivalent circuit model (Rct-CPE-Q) was used to fit the EIS data, and the charge transfer resistance Rct was extracted as the battery internal resistance.

Secondary temperature control: A PT100 temperature sensor (three-wire connection) is mounted on the battery surface and amplified by the instrumentation amplifier INA128 before being sent to the control subsystem. The response time is ≤ 2 seconds. Level 3 temperature control: Phase change material (melting point 25°C, model RT25HC) is laid on the bottom of the battery to absorb transient heat. A centrifugal fan (air volume 150 CFM) is used to force heat dissipation, ensuring that the wind speed uniformity on the battery surface is ≥90%.
[0022] 2. Fuzzy PID control algorithm: The control subsystem uses 7×7 fuzzy subsets to achieve temperature control: Definition of fuzzy variables: temperature deviation e∈{-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3}, deviation change rate ec∈{-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3}; The control rule base contains 49 rules (e.g. ife=NBandec=NBthenu=PB), and the output u is the PWM duty cycle; The current of the semiconductor cooling chip is adjusted by PWM signal (frequency 10kHz), and the fan speed (0-3000rpm) is combined to achieve battery temperature field uniformity ≤±1℃.

The action threshold can be adjusted in the range of 0-100A by the potentiometer. 2. Software-level security policy: The control subsystem performs dual software protection in real time: Over-temperature protection: When the PT100 sensor detects that the battery surface temperature is greater than 85°C, a command is sent through the SPI interface to cut off the power output; Short-circuit protection: Calculates the VI curve slope in real time (sampling interval 100μs). When the slope change rate is greater than 5V / A·ms, a hardware interrupt is triggered, cutting off the test circuit within 1ms. Multi-channel testing and remote monitoring implementation: 1. Channel time division multiplexing design: The multi-channel test subsystem uses the ADG1608 multi-way analog switch to build a 16-channel switching circuit: Channel switching timing: The control subsystem completes 16-channel switching every 50ms through a polling mechanism, with a sampling rate of 10kHz; Crosstalk suppression: Each channel input stage uses an independent operational amplifier (OPA2333) for buffering, the isolation resistance between channels is ≥10MΩ, and the crosstalk is ≤0.1%; Parallel acquisition: Each channel is equipped with an independent sample-and-hold circuit (LF398) to achieve synchronous data acquisition of 16 channels. 2. Remote monitoring and data interaction: The data communication and remote monitoring subsystem implements a three-layer architecture: Communication protocol: Adopts OPCUA protocol stack (FreeOpcUa open source library) and realizes cloud synchronization through Ethernet interface (W5500 chip); Visualization interface: The remote monitoring software is developed based on the Qt framework, and the 3D visualization module uses the VTK library, which can retrieve the VIT curve of any channel in real time; Authority management: When the control subsystem receives a remote command, it performs three-level authority authentication (administrator / engineer / operator) and transmits the command data using AES-128 encryption. Full process automation of test methods: 1. Parameter collaborative optimization: Control and measurement subsystem built-in battery type-parameter mapping table: 2. Dynamic calibration and data evaluation: The test method includes triple precision assurance: Full-scale drift compensation: Before testing, a standard resistor array (0.1mΩ-100mΩ, accuracy ±0.01%) is connected and the measurement circuit is calibrated using the four-point method. Outlier elimination: The data storage and processing subsystem uses the Grubbs criterion (95% confidence level) to automatically eliminate data when it deviates from the mean by 3σ; Process automation: The entire process from parameter setting to report generation is scheduled by the control subsystem. A single test takes only 8 minutes, which is 60% shorter than the traditional system (20 minutes). Example verification data: The 18650 ternary lithium battery (capacity 2200mAh) was tested at 25°C and the following data was obtained: Internal resistance measurement accuracy: ±0.2mΩ (standard value 35.6mΩ, measured 35.8mΩ); Frequency response: Impedance modulus 36.2mΩ at 100Hz, phase angle -12.5°; Multi-channel consistency: When 16 channels are tested simultaneously, the maximum deviation is ≤0.5%; Safety response: Overcurrent (100A) protection response time 8μs, short-circuit protection cut-off time 0.8ms.
