New Battery Technologies – Added Value Electronics Can Turn Normal Batteries into Smart Battery Packs
Anton Beck, Battery Project Manager
Epec
Batteries have come a long way since their invention, from Volta’s voltic pile of zinc and copper plates to today’s high tech lithium ion batteries. The energy density (both volumetric and gravimetric) of battery cells has steadily increased over the years with new battery chemistries.

Extending Battery Life: A Routine Maintenance Schedule Can Dramatically Improve the Life of Flooded Lead-Acid Batteries
Fred Wehmeyer, Senior Vice President of Engineering
US Battery Manufacturing
Businesses that use flooded lead-acid batteries for a variety of applications already know the importance of charging and adding water for optimum performance. Flooded lead-acid batteries are still the most cost effective means to power a variety of vehicles such as golf cars, platforms, cranes and more, but are also great for storing power used in off-grid and partial grid applications. Although these batteries are cost effective, anyone who has had to purchase a new set of them knows how expensive that can be. By making the batteries last longer, users can save a significant amount of money and reduce annual operating costs.

Preventing Counterfeiting: Challenges and Selection Criteria for an Ideal Authentication Solution
Robert Rozario
Infineon Technologies North America Corp.
The counterfeiting and cloning of devices and peripherals are major concerns for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). These concerns grow when manufacturing is outsourced to offshore Contract Manufacturers (CMs) or even to multiple CMs, which can make it almost impossible to protect the intellectual property (IP) and prevent the unauthorized production of gray market products and peripherals. Legitimate suppliers not only suffer direct revenue losses, but also lose brand reputation if a product is damaged as the result of using cloned peripherals, and may even incur high liability costs.
