UBBL13-01

A rugged dual-section smart pack used in robotics and unmanned systems, illustrating why series/parallel host wiring is part of the battery specification.

Architecture

Two independently addressable battery sections that the host can connect in series or parallel, with SMBus and dual state-of-charge displays

MODEL-LINKED PHYSICAL EVIDENCE

1 bounded physical-evidence record.

Publisher independence, identity precision and measurement scope vary by row. Results remain bounded by the disclosed specimen, setup, workload and metric; an inconclusive mapping is evidence associated with the catalog model, not verification of a manufacturer claim.

Known limits

What this record does not prove.

  • The host determines series versus parallel connection and therefore voltage/capacity presentation.
  • Operating-temperature range is not the same as charge-temperature range.
  • Military form-factor compatibility does not guarantee every robot host pinout or charger is compatible.
