battery charger

I using the MOSFET IRFB3004PBF switching. 56.2V is a source voltage coming from the charger and 48 is the nominal voltage of the batter. switch S1 is for switching Vgs. Vgs=5 v. Rgs=10k ohms (connected to the gate terminal and battery ground). battery is 13s3p Nominal=48v Peak=54.6v Will MOSFET...

Please I have a bunch of lithium batteries connected in parallel, each rated 3.2v and 3Ah.(about 4 of them. I have a laptop charger with an output of 19v at 2.1A. I know I can't connect it directly to the batteries, so what type of circuit can I use to charge the batteries via the laptop...

Hi all, I need to replace my Dyson V6 charger which is rated at 26.1v @780mA. Rather than buying a new charger I've contemplated buying a $2 MT3608 DC boost converter to achieve a stable 26v from a 12v DC supply which I have tons of. I'm not certain what the output current would be but to be...

Hii Everyone, I want to make a project in which I want to charge my 12V--7.2Ah SMF(Sealed Maintenance Free ) Battery. I have a solar panel which has Vmp of 18V , Isc of 0.75A and rated power of 12W. I personally think that this solar panel is generating much more power than to charge the...

I’ve a bunch of Sanyo Cadnica cells of various capacities in my possession. Though they are a bit old they have never been used and are NOS. I’m currently trying to charge a KR-FH 7000mAh cell. As per the label on the battery(please see picture below) it says at 700mA it should be charged 14-16...

I'm posting today hoping for some guidance on a project i would like to attempt. I recently came into a lot of 64 12v 7AH Sealed Lead Acid batteries from a backup UPS. The batteries are still good and take a charge and load like normal for the most part. Since i only have the batteries and...

Hello all, I am using TPS61253 Boost IC to boost 3.8V from 375mAH Li-Ion battery to operate a load of 2A and also charge the backup Li-Ion battery of 115mAH using BQ25895 chip. Looks like battery is not able to deliver the necessary current and the load circuit does not boot up correctly. Is...

I have 2 18650 li-ion cells, each at 3.7v (in case you don't see the pictures, they are available here : https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/posts/121847 ) and this bay with this white connector I saw on youtube that depending on the length of the cell, we can know whether they have...

Hi, My Sony BCG-34HRE battery charger has just died with a loud buzz and then a pop, so I decided to take it apart and see what exploded inside. Getting inside required a bit of wrestling (damn you hidden screw!) and I took a few pics which I'm sharing here for posterity. There...

Digitally controlling charge voltage with some regulator like Lm317 is a matter of using some resistor and transistor as stated in lm317 datasheet to select from multiple pre defined voltage. But what about choosing output current ? How it can be adjust with digital signals from...

I have a Chinese battery charging control module (XH-M603) that I'm trying to use as a float charger for a 12v SLA battery. The problem is that the module only works correctly when it is connected close to the battery using short leads. When I connect the module using 30ft of wire (which is how...

Hello! First time ever posting to a forum of any kind. I have a charger made for charging a single 3.7 volt Li-Ion battery or more than one cell could be charged but at a slower charge rate. My question is there anyway to charge the two cells ran in series as the picture I attached shows with...

I am working on a project where i have to charge a battery from a PV panel source. I have a boost cascaded by a buck converter for my system. The boost converter for P&O MPPT and the buck for the 3 stage battery charging algorithm. So now I am looking to implement the control. So on a...

Hi All, I would like to build a simple automatic irrigation system with Raspberry Pi zero, the thing is that I don't have access to electricity outside. I thought to connect 5v solar panel + 3\4 chargeable batteries. Im not that familiar with building control circuits for charging batteries...

Hi I need help building the electronics for a home project. Essentially I am trying to: 1. Charge a battery with a solar panel 2. Activate a 12solenoid valve controlling pressurized water with a push button 3. Have the solenoid close after an adjustable time delay I was able to find solar...

Hey! I have a lamp which is powered by a 5V power supply and I want to upgrade it by powering it with a battery pack. The issue is I want to use the lamp while charging its batteries but as I know charging and draining at one time is impossible so I searched for simple switching circuit but I...

Hello, I have lithium-ion battery pack that consists of 21 cells( 3 parallel,7 series,one of them 4,2V 3.4Ah). I use this battery pack with BQ7791504PW from Texas Instruments for battery protection.This IC achieves pack protection via CHG and DSG low-side NMOS FET drivers. I use this battery...

Hey, so I am trying to design and build my own battery charger for 4 cell LiPos (including HV-LiPos with 4.35v/cell) but I don't have a lot of experience with circuit design. I designed this circuit so that it can either supply a constant voltage or constant current to the battery with the...

Hello, Which device best protects the rectifier and electronics inside an older style car battery charger? I have seen some manufacturers use an ATC blade fuse but I'm not sure if that will act fast enough to protect the circuits. I came across another device too, it's a Bussmann Circuit...

I'm developing a battery charger with the MCP73833 IC. I want to set up the charge temperature window between 0 °C - 60 °C . How can I calculate Rt1 and Rt2 ? The equation: The datasheet: Datasheet
