This program automates the following tasks:
- Extracts specified charge and discharge profiles from Neware, Biologic or Maccor battery cycling software output files.
- Calculates smoothed differential capacity versus voltage curves from these cycles (dQ/dV vs V), using Savitzky-Golay differentiation.
- Automates Origin to produce plots of this data.
This program is in the following format:
- An Excel spreadsheet, containing VBA Macros
This program has the following system requirements:
- Origin 9.0 or later
- Microsoft Excel (not Libre Office or other equivalents)
Instructions to use this program are found:
- In written form in the spreadsheet itself
- In the form of three PowerPoint presentations, showing the correct file export process for each type of battery testing software
- In the form of the Program Demonstration Video.
The following additional files are included with this download:
- A data file for each format, that can be used to confirm the program runs correctly on your computer
