[0019] See also Figure 1-2 The utility model provides a technical solution: a virtual battery voltage and current calibration device, including a PC end, a main control board, a channel switching board, a 485 expansion board, a 6019 reference source and a virtual battery pack board, the main control board, the 485 expansion board, and the 6019 reference source are all connected to the output end of the PC end, the output end of the 485 expansion board is connected to the input end of the virtual battery pack board, the output ends of the main control board and the 6019 reference source are both connected to the input end of the channel switching board, and the output end of the channel switching board is connected to the input end of the virtual battery pack board, a plurality of virtual batteries are installed on the virtual battery pack board, and the output end of the 485 expansion board and the output end of the channel switching board are both connected to a plurality of virtual batteries.
[0020] The PC side controls the output of the reference voltage and current of the 6019 reference source, and at the same time controls the main control board through the PC side. The main control board then controls the channel switching board to complete the channel switching, and transmits the reference signal generated by the 6019 reference source to the corresponding multiple virtual battery cell positions. The PC side gives the reference signal value to multiple virtual battery cells through the 485 expansion board.
