    Hot-Swap Battery System

    I'm working on a research project at my school that includes flying a drone with an attached signal source to collect data. The signal source is powered separately from the drone and is reliant on an atomic clock that needs to be reset once it runs out of power. In order to avoid this, I am...

    Load Testing a Cars Battery Using an Arduino to Monitor the Results

    I am working on a project that involves monitoring a cars battery. I can measure the voltage of it using a voltage sensor, a display and an arduino but that doesn't tell me much about the health of the battery. After researching, what seems to be the most popular way is putting a load onto the...

    Design or Tools for Passthrought Voltage/Current Recorder for Batteries

    Okay so, currently wanting to set up a test for some rechargeable batteries, and developing a lower power mode for a system. The goal is to connect fully charged batteries to my devices to see how much current they actually drain. I have an estimate how long they should last, but its not exact...

    Why I use MCP1640 can not get 3.3v

    When I build the circuit on the circuit breadboard. the input voltage is 1.3,but output only 2.0v without load resistance. when I input 3v with two cells batteries,the ouput only 2.8v without load. If I add load for circuit, the output voltage is lowee. So why? Is that any problem with official...

    "closed by default" transistor design?

    I have an external switch connecting GND to RST on an 8266, it looks like this: [GND] ------ [normally open switch] -------- [8266 RST pin]. The ESP goes to sleep, and then the switch wakes it up. However while in operation I want this reset functionality disabled, but at a hardware level...

    If V = I x R then does it still "make sense" to refer to a battery's voltage when not connected to anything? As in I = 0..?

    I'm an automotive mechanic that specializes in electrical/drivability diagnosis. I like helping other techs get a better grasp on this aspect of our trade. Now imagine I'm with another tech and I have a battery and a multimeter in front of me. I measure the battery's voltage and get 12V. Me...

    DW01A on pcb and integrated on lipo: double charging protection ... will it still work?

    I've designed a circuit around the tp4056 with DW01A and FS8205A included, as well as load sharing capabilities. beneath circuit is what i use (minus load sharing) now that i'm sourcing lipo batteries, i see most of them have a protection circuit already build in with the same DW01A and...
