A flexible Hybrid System-in-Foil (HySiF) is designed to be used as an electronic skin for robotic applications. At IMS CHIPS, we believe that the future of flexible electronics relies on the integration of multiple electronic components on a single substrate. Our system comprises of an array of printed strain gauges and ultrathin flexible silicon chips, which demonstrates the complementary benefits of combining the low-cost printed electronics and the high performance silicon technologies.

This paper presents a comparative overview of models for lithium-ion batteries from an electrical Engineering Point of view. The comparison criteria and the different models are presented. After this comparison, a model is used to establish a new communication concept.
