Lithium Ion Battery Charger Circuit using LM317

author prototype of Lithium Ion Battery Charger Circuit

A Lithium-Ion Battery Charger Circuit using LM317 charges the battery in two different modes: constant current mode and constant voltage mode. Lithium polymer or lithium-ion batteries are very prone to overcharging or charging with high voltage or high current. Thus, when designing the charger circuit for Li-ion or Li-Po, we must consider a few things, such as charging voltage and current. The circuit posted here is designed using one of the famous variable voltage regulators, IC LM317. This circuit charges the battery in two modes, i.e., constant current and voltage.…

12V Lead Acid Battery Charger Circuit

12V Lead Acid Battery Charger Circuit

There are lots of 12V Lead Acid Battery Charger Circuit available over the internet but does not include a battery status indicator. If you wish to know the status of the battery like dead, charged, or charging you need an extra circuit. In order to solve these problems, we combined three different circuits and hence do three different dedicated jobs like charging the battery, indicating the status of the battery, and also have a dedicated port for variable power supply connector of bench power supply in case you need. This…

Automatic battery float charger circuit

automatic float charging circuit

Automatic battery float charger circuit: This article aims to develop a battery charger circuit using the principle float charging technique. Afloat charger is also referred to as a smart charger, maintenance charger, or storage charger because it charges the battery at the same rate at which it self-discharges. The main reason for using a float charger is, that it protects the battery from overcharging and deep discharging. Thus, you can connect the float charger circuit to a battery for indefinite intervals of time i.e. there is no need to disconnect…
