Rechargeable lithium-ion battery
BB-2590/U SMBus
Extreme performance
The Saft BB-2590 SMBus battery is a high
performance lithium-ion battery with two
independent 15V sections that can be
connected externally for 30V or 15V
operation. The Saft BB-2590 implements
SMBus v1.1 communication and utilizes
Smart Battery technology that protects
against over-current, over-voltage,
over-temperature, under-voltage, and
short circuit.
