    Battery charger circuit design

    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...

    Fast acting device to protect a high current 6/12V charger during short circuit?

    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...

    Circuit board help

    I have a wireless keyboard case for my iPad mini. When it’s off and I put it to charge the charge light turns on. But when I turn on the keyboard it’s dead. I’m looking at the circuit board and I think it has to do with the battery. The board looks fine. Can someone help me ?

    Li-ion battery charging termination current

    Hi all, I have a question about Li-ion rechargable batteries. I have almost no experience with it. Documentation to battery is very poor, but there is an info about charging profile: Stage 1: Constant Current 0.82 Ampere (0.2C) until Voltage reach 4.2V Stage 2: Constant Voltage (4.2V) with...

    Building a charging circuit for a 2 cell Li-ion battery

    Hi, I am in the process of designing a battery to use with a pair of FPV goggles for drone racing, the goggles require a 2 cell battery, but I don't have a 2 cell battery charger. I do have a bunch of TP4056 charging boards, and I was looking to design an all in one unit that would hold 2...

    Running a power tool without a battery.

    Hi, I have a 10.8V Bosch battery which is standard for power tools. It has 5 terminals: + - C1 C2 T I'd like to power the device without the battery using a DC power supply. When I apply just the right voltage to + and - it doesn't work. How am I supposed to mimick C1,C2 and T interfaces...

    Li-Ion Battery Managment IC Issue

    Hi, I would appreciate if someone would be able to comment/advice on the following matter. I have been looking around for an IC that would charge and balance Li-Ion cells 2-3 of them in series. It seems that the balance feature is absent in most cases. MCP73841 appears to provide most of the...

    Arduino Mega 2560 controlled MPPT charge controller for small wind turbine.

    I am in the process of designing a MPPT controller for a wind turbine. There are plenty of MPPT boards (with BQ24650 MPPT charge controller ICs) but these are fixed voltage MPPT designs tailored for photovoltaic applications. So I decided to make a simple DC converter (buck boost design, non...

    LDO crash when Lipo reaches full charge with USB still powering.

    Hello, I'm just now getting into creating PCB's as a hobby, and created a little board that simply consists of a BLE module powered by a tiny Lithium polymer battery (40mah). Since the max operating voltage of the module is 3.6V, I also have an LDO that will drop the voltage down to 3.3V...
