Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) is a sophisticated diagnostic method examining the complex internal chemistries of batteries, fuel cells, and electrolyzers by measuring electrical fluctuations defining electrochemical systems’ operational health and efficiency, supporting developmental research and maintenance. EIS analyzes the dynamic responses of these systems by applying sinusoidal signals and monitoring the resultant electrical behaviors, thus revealing processes invisible to direct current evaluations. Through detailed analysis of resistance and reactance in these systems, EIS aids in preserving electrode integrity and forecasting future performance, thus minimizing risks and improving the reliability of electrochemical energy storage and generation across various applications, from small-scale laboratory tests to large industrial implementations.

 

In this presentation we will be discussing the benefits of Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy including:

 

  • In-depth Battery Health Insights

  • Non-Invasive Analysis

  • Comprehensive Impedance Breakdown

  • Predictive Maintenance

  • Cross-Application Versatility

  • How ESI works including measurement and data processing steps

Room A

​10:15 am to 11:15 am

 

Topic: Power Electronics and Precision Measurements 

Presented by: Chris Armstrong, Marketing Director Siglent Technologies

Sponsored by: Siglent Technologies

 

 Power electronics technology requires more advanced testing techniques and solutions to verify function, efficiency, and reliability.

 

This is a discussion of test requirements and techniques for wideband gap and power semiconductors including high resolution measurements, probing, and double pulse testing.

 

Room B

​11:00 am to 12:00 pm
