How to read battey discharge mode
« on: February 10, 2019, 02:38:52 pm »
Hi All,

I'm still new for this battery field. Currently I'm trying to source out lithium battery type for one of my project. One of my possible supplier provide a technical information request form as I need to fill it up. However, I have no clue on required details called 'discharge mode'. Attached is example of battery spec that I found online. Please advise me based on given battery technical spec. I just want to understand how to fill in the form based given spec attached. Based on attached battery specification, please help me how to fill in discharge mode details in a form 'technical information required'.

Thanks in advanced.

The discharge questions are quite simple, what are you trying to power. I see that the spec does not ask what capacity you desire so it looks like they are trying to work that out for you. The best thing is for you to tell them the capacity you require and the peak output current required and they should understand that.

They allow for background current and pulse current.  Perhaps you have a uC that sleeps most of the time and wakes up to check for <whatever>.  Their will be some small current keeping the uC alive and a much higher current when it has to solve world hunger.  What they're asking for is the nature of the background and peak loads.

It's all shown in the picture.  Just figure out what you project needs and fill in the blanks.  But you have to tell them what your load imposes on the battery, they can't just guess!
