This BQ7718 series 2S to 5S series Li-Ion cell charger is designed to monitor the voltage of each of the li-ion cells independently, with reference to an internally set reference level. As soon as any of the cell voltage tends to go above the reference level, it triggers an internal delay timer. This delay timer […]

Ni-Cd Low Battery Monitor Circuit using Lambda Diode
The main feature of this lambda-diode low battery indicator for Ni-Cd batteries is that, the circuit itself consumes almost zero current, until the set low threshold level is reached and the indicator LED is illuminated. This feature makes the circuit very suitable for many low voltage battery operated systems, like radios, watches, timers, alarms, remote […]
