Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model is applied to the technical field of battery structure testing, and particularly relates to a high and low temperature multi-channel functional testing module. Background Art

[0002] Consumer electronic products basically have their own power supply structure, which can operate independently without relying on the wiring harness to connect the power supply. In order to ensure the stable operation of the power supply structure, a battery protection board is usually set up for battery driving and charge and discharge management. Due to different geographical locations, the temperature is also different. For example, in the low temperature environment or extremely high temperature environment in the north, the battery and the battery protection board will show different working conditions due to the influence of the external temperature environment. In order to ensure that consumers can get a better user experience in different environments, it is necessary to test the working state of the power supply structure under different temperature environments. In existing tests, the battery pack is usually tested under different temperature environments to obtain its performance parameters at the corresponding temperature. It is usually a batch test before assembly, and the connection device is used to connect and test a large number of battery packs. After completing the battery pack test, the battery protection board is usually not tested separately or after assembly. In this way, the working state of the battery protection board under different temperature environments cannot be obtained, and its performance under the corresponding conditions cannot be known. Since high temperature or low temperature environment testing requires an independent temperature environment, it is not convenient for operators to test directly on the production line, because without this temperature environment, the authenticity of the data collected by the tester is greatly deviated, and it is easy to misjudge the function.
