Laptop Charger Circuit from 12V Battery
In this post I have explained a simple car laptop charger circuit for charging laptops from a 12V car battery using a IC 555 based boost converter. The idea was requested by one of the avid readers of this blog. Making a 12V to 19V Converter May I request you for a circuit diagram for […]
3-Step Automatic Fast Battery Charger/Controller Circuit
Generally it is noticed that while charging batteries people hardly pay any special attention toward the procedures. For them charging a battery is simply connecting any DC supply with matching voltage with the battery terminals. A fast battery charger circuit charges a battery with enhanced speed so that it is charged in less time than the specified period. […]
How to Recharge Dead Batteries
In this post I have explained how to recharge and use bad, defective discarded batteries using an innovative battery charging process invented by John Bedini. Lead acid batteries can sometimes be a problem to get rid of. They can also be high priced to upgrade. In case discarded in the wrong way, they have a […]
LiFePO4 Battery Charging/Discharging Specifications, Advantages Explained
While Li-Ion and Lithium polymer electrolyte (LiPo) batteries possess unmatched energy density, Lithium-based batteries are costly to produce and need meticulous handling along with a cautious charging. With the advancement of nanotechnology, the manufacturing process of the cathode electrode for these batteries has seen a substantial improvement. The break through nanotechnology-based high-load LiFePO4 cells are […]
BQ24295 Smart Battery Charger IC with Boost + OTG
This BQ24295 IC is like a super smart charger chip. This one is not just for charging battery, but also doing many other jobs like boost converter, USB detection, power path control, and even OTG (host power supply). So we can say that this is a full battery charging and power management IC. Let us […]
