Cycle life test
General cycle life?Charge to 20% DOD every cycle
?Voltage:4.2V for charge and 3V for discharge?Reference performance test every 25 cycles
ChinaWorking condition cycle life?Start at 30% DOD
?Repeat the test profile 100 times as a cycle?40%DOD 1 cycle , 50%DOD 2 cycles ,60%DOD 2 cycles ,50%DOD 2 cycles ,40%DOD 1 cycle ,30%DOD 1cycle
End-of-test condition: degradation of the battery capacity is more than 20%

?Careful planning and analysis of calendar life tests are critical to estimation of battery life with high confidence.
?Calenderlife esimmatesare necessarily based on accelerated test methods(High temperature)?Achieve high rates of deterioration to minimize test time and cost
?Avoid introducing irrelevant failure modes at too high temperature
