Abstract

The Battery Heater Board is an open-source hardware designed for precise temperature control during battery testing. This device integrates the heater, driver, and temperature sensors on a single metal core printed circuit board, allowing for accurate and compact temperature control. The board uses a synchronous buck converter to drive a custom layout heating trace integrated into the metal core printed circuit board. The included script for meandering a trace used as a heating foil helps to adapt to other applications or formats. In addition, the metal core printed circuit board provides both precise temperature control and a smooth surface, which is critical for accurate battery testing. This paper describes the heater’s design, components, and assembly and presents validation results demonstrating the device’s effectiveness in setting stable temperatures. The Battery Heater Board is an open-access, cost-effective solution for battery researchers and engineers requiring reproducible and precise temperature conditions.

期刊介绍： HardwareX is an open access journal established to promote free and open source designing, building and customizing of scientific infrastructure (hardware). HardwareX aims to recognize researchers for the time and effort in developing scientific infrastructure while providing end-users with sufficient information to replicate and validate the advances presented. HardwareX is open to input from all scientific, technological and medical disciplines. Scientific infrastructure will be interpreted in the broadest sense. Including hardware modifications to existing infrastructure, sensors and tools that perform measurements and other functions outside of the traditional lab setting (such as wearables, air/water quality sensors, and low cost alternatives to existing tools), and the creation of wholly new tools for either standard or novel laboratory tasks. Authors are encouraged to submit hardware developments that address all aspects of science, not only the final measurement, for example, enhancements in sample preparation and handling, user safety, and quality control. The use of distributed digital manufacturing strategies (e.g. 3-D printing) is encouraged. All designs must be submitted under an open hardware license.
