Re: Electronics that stop working when cold said by Subaru:with new batteries ... will not come on until it's warmed up above 20-26 F All batteries have internal resistance which goes up as temperature goes down. Above chart is for rechargeable batteries but gives you an idea of what happens to the power output below some threshold temperature.
said by Subaru:I know most chips have operating limits as far as temperature but why? Chips (digital or analog) are really a whole bunch of circuit elements. The behavior of each of those elements depends on temperature. |
