4. Power and Heat Management

All boosters are fully protected against any thermal failure and
excessive internal temperatures. The following information is given
to allow you to run long experiments safely, without the possibility
of being interrupted by overheating.

BOOSTER VARIANTS

In this series of boosters, three variants provide a range of voltages and currents
for sourcing (cell charging) and sinking (cell discharging) . A fourth variant is
only for sinking. These variants and their operating ranges are listed in Table 4-1.
