How to Achieve Real-Time Monitoring for Your Battery System

best-lifepo4-solar-battery

At Himax, we understand that real-time battery monitoring is critical for ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and safety, especially for applications requiring consistent energy management.

 

Whether you require basic voltage display or smart remote control, we have the right technology to optimize your battery management. We offer three tailored real-time monitoring solutions, each designed to meet different needs and budgets. Welcome to check the solutions below:

 

1.Basic Display Screen  (Simplest Solution)

 

This cost-effective solution uses a simple voltage-detecting display mounted on the battery case or device. It allows users to easily check the battery’s voltage and capacity level.

Advantages:

✅ Low cost (ideal for budget projects)

✅ No signal interference (suitable for fixed installations)

✅ Easy installation, Ideal for stationary equipment with minimal data needs

 

Limitations:

❌ No remote monitoring

❌ Limited data (only voltage & rough SOC%)

❌ Low SOC% accuracy

 

Display Types:

 

Multiple-level LED indicators

 

LCD screens showing voltage and battery percentage

 

Best For:

 

Small backup power systems

 

Low-cost consumer electronics

Lipo Battery

2.Communication-Enabled Display (RS485/Advanced Interface)

 

By using RS485/CAN BUS or similar protocols to transmit detailed battery date to an LCD, PC software or cloud platform. This screen delivers real-time, high-accuracy data such as voltage, current, SOC, and temperature etc.

Advantages:

✅ High precision (accurate SOC, temperature, etc.)

✅ Supports multi-data display (ideal for complex systems)

✅ Customizable interface, suitable for high-end or professional equipment

 

Limitations:

❌ Higher cost

❌ Requires wiring/configuration

 

Display Interfaces:

 

Advanced LCD panels

 

PC software interface

 

Cloud-based platforms

 

Best For:

 

High-end energy storage systems

 

Industrial equipment

 

EV battery packs

 

3.Bluetooth Monitoring

 

A low-power Bluetooth module can transmit battery data directly to a smartphone app. Users can also remotely control charging and discharging MOS functions when the battery is in a normal state.

Advantages:

✅ Affordable wireless solution

✅ 10-50m range (no internet needed)

✅ User-friendly app interface in your phone

 

Limitations:

❌ Weak wall penetration

❌ Slightly higher self-discharge

 

Recommended Applications:

 

E-scooters

 

Golf carts

 

Solar storage systems

 

Portable medical devices
