Simple Ni-Cd Battery Charger Circuits Explored
In this post I have explained many simple NiCd charger circuits with an automatic overcharge protection and a constant current charging. When it comes to correctly charging a Nickel-Cadmium cell, it is strictly recommended that the charging process is halted or cut off as soon as it reaches the full charge level. Not following this […]
Precise Battery Capacity Tester Circuit – Backup Time Tester
The precise battery capacity tester circuit explained in the following article can be used for testing the maximum backup capacity of any rechargeable battery in real time. By Timothy John Basic concept The circuit works by practically discharging a fully charged battery under test through constant current, until its voltage reaches the deep discharge value. […]
