Chager circuit for SMF batteries

Image
Description. Here is a simple charger circuit for charging SMF(sealed maintenance free ) batteries.The charger circuit being curernt and voltage regulated,can be safely used to charge SMF batteries of 1.2 AH rating.This circuit was actually designed in response to a request from a reader.With slight modifications you can use it for charging any sort of SMF batteries. The first part of the circuit is the power supply made of transformer T1 and diodes D1&D2.The capacitor C1 filters the rectifier output .The next part is the section comprising of IC1 and Q1 which provides the necessary volatge and current regulation.The diode D3 prevents ther reverse flow of charge from the battery . Circuit diagram with parts list. Notes. Assemble the circuit on a good quality PCB or common board. An ammeter can be conncted in series with the battery to monitor the charging current. Do not short circuit the charging terminals of the circuit.The circuit doesnot have short circuit protection. R4 is ...

Automatic Switch for Batteries

Image
Nowadays the batteries are gaining more and more power, being the only components that fail to provide energy for portable electronic devices. The evolution is rapid, leading manufacturers electronic equipment to attempt to minimize the consumption of their products so that they can operate for several hours using simple batteries trade. In spite of the efforts of manufacturers, the device will absorb a zero power not yet invented. Thus, both small and if the current device is mathematically certain that at some point, after a few hours, days or ethdomades, the battery-drain .  Automatic Switch for Batteries  Circuit diagram The purpose of the circuit will describe below, is to keep 'alive' batteries for the maximum time, minimizing unnecessary consumption. Taking a brief look at the circuit, you notice that the few parts that are can be integrated into any device powered by a battery of 9 V. The main trait is that allows current to flow to the load for a minute, since you pre...
