Battery Backup Time Indicator Circuit
In this post I have explained a battery backup time indicator circuit for monitoring the battery power usage by the connected load and for estimating the approximate remaining backup time of the battery. The idea was requested by Mr. Mehran Manzoor. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I want a circuit which shows remaining time of backup […]
Multiple Battery Charger Circuit using Dump Capacitor
In this article I have explained how to build an automatic battery charger circuit using dump capacitor concept for self detecting and charging a multiple set of batteries. The idea was requested by Mr. Michael. Circuit Objectives and Requirements My name is Michael and live in Belgium. I found your site thru google during my […]
EV Wireless Battery Charger Calculator Tool
This calculator helps estimate resonant frequency or compensation capacitor for a wireless EV charging primary coil. It is for first-step design and learning, not final tuning… Calculator by homemade-circuits.com EV Wireless LC Resonance Calculator EV Wireless LC Resonance Calculator Calculate: Resonant Frequency (Hz)Capacitance (µF)Inductance (µH) First Value: Primary Inductance µHCapacitance µFFrequency Hz Second Value: Primary […]
Make this EV Battery Charger Circuit
In this post I will explain how to build and test a homemade yet very professional looking high power EV battery charger transmitter circuit using H-bridge fixed-frequency AC inverter topology, driving a series-resonant LC tank. I will also explain how to build a complementing EV charger receiver circuit for receiving the charging current from the […]
Using MOSFET Body Diodes to Charge Battery in Inverters
In this post I have explained how the internal body diodes of MOSFETs could be exploited for enabling the charging of battery through the same transformer which is being used as the inverter transformer. In this article we will investigate a full bridge inverter concept and learn how the in-built diodes of its 4 MOSFETs […]
