Voltage selection:

Voltage Selection Chart For Low Cost Universal Battery Charger

Determining the charge current:

Before building the circuit, you must determinate how much current will be used to charge the battery or battery pack. It is advisable to charge the battery with a current that is 10 times smaller then the battery capacity, and to charge it for about 15 hours. If you double the charge current , then you can charge the battery in half the time. Charge current selection chart is located in diagram.

Example:

A battery pack of 6V / 1000mAh can be charged with 100mA during 15 hours. If you want to charge faster, then a charge current of 200mA can be used for about 7 hours.

Caution:

The higher charge current, the more critical the charge time must be checked. When faster charging is used, it is advisable to discharge the battery completely before charging. Using a charge current of 1/10 of the capacity will expand the lifetime of the battery. The charge time can easily be doubled without damaging the battery.

Note:

Mount the transistor together with the heatsink on the PCB, bend the leads as necessary. Take care that the metal back of the transistor touches the heatsink. Check that the leads of the transistor do not touch the heatsink.

Universal Battery Charger Battery charger for general purpose usage Universal Battery Charger circuit diagram The chargers output voltage is adjust

Universal Battery Charger

Battery charger for general purpose usage.

Universal

The chargers output voltage is adjustable and regulated, and has an adjustable constant-current charging circuit that makes it easy to use with most NiCad batteries. The charger can charge a single cell or a number of series-connected cells up to a maximum of 18V.

Power transistors Q1 and Q2 are connected as series regulators to control the battery chargers output voltage and charge-current rate. An LM-317 adjustable voltage regulator supplies the drive signal to the bases of power transistor Q1 and Q2. Potensiometer R9 sets the output-voltage level. A current sampling resistor, R8 (a 0.1 ohm/5W unit), is connected between the negative output lead and circuit ground. For each amp of charging current that flows through R8, a 100mV output is developed across it. The voltage developed across R8 is fed to one input of comparator U3. The other input of the comparator is connected to variable resistor R10.

As the charging voltage across the battery begins to drop, the current through R8 decrease. Then the voltage feeding pin 5 of U3 decreases, and the comparator output follows, turning Q3 back off, which completes the signals circular path to regulate the batterys charging current.

The charging current can be set by adjusting R10 for the desired current. The circuits output voltage is set by R9

Lead Acid Battery Charger LM317

Lead Acid Battery Charger circuit is highly recommended to recharge battery. And recommended that maximum voltage 24V 7A battery, so you can recharge a battery simultaneously. Battery Charger has been little use of several components such as diodes, electrolytic capacitors, transistors, resistors, and also for strengthening of the voltage and current stresses. And also do not forget to lowering electric voltage 220V to 20V-35V 5-10 Ampere suitable for Lead Acid Battery Charger circuit.

for Figure Schematic circuit Lead Acid Battery Charger, you can see below :

List of components for the circuit Lead Acid battery:

R1 = 1Ω 2w

R2 = 100Ω

R3 = 220Ω

R4 = 10KΩ Trim

D1 - D5 = IN4004

Q1 = BC547

IC 1 = LM317

C1 - C2 = 1000µF 50V

C3 = 470µF 50V

Transformer I mentioned above can use the 5A - 10A with a secondary voltage of about 20Volt-35Volt AC. My advice to IC please be cooler, because when the circuit and well even IC LM317 works it causes IC hot. Also to assemble the components using PCB (Printed works Circuit Board) qualified with a good track, as well as the components that will be used not forget to check back whether good or not, so it will also produce good results.

12V Powered 12V Lead Acid Battery Charger with Indicator

Some of you might wonder why a charger is needed at all, to charge a 12 Volt battery from a 12 Volt source! Well, firstly the "12 Volt" source will typically vary anywhere from 11 Volt to 15 Volt, and then a battery needs a controlled charge current and voltage, which cannot result from connecting it directly to a voltage source. The charger described here is intended for charging small 12 Volt lead acid batteries, such as the gelled or AGM batteries of capacities between about 2 and 10 Ah, using a cars electrical system as power source, regardless of whether the car engine is running or not. I built this charger many years ago, I think I was still in school back then. On request of a reader of my web site, Im publishing it now, despite being a rather crude circuit.

12V Powered 12V Lead Acid Battery Charger with Indicator

It works, it is uncritical to build, and uses only easy-to-find parts, so it has something in its favor. The downside is mainly the low efficiency: This charger wastes about as much power as it puts into the battery. The charger consists of two stages: The first is a capacitive voltage doubler, which uses a 555 timer IC driving a pair of transistors connected as emitter followers, which in turn drive the voltage doubler proper. The doubler has power resistors built in, which limit the charging current. The second stage is a voltage regulator, using a 7815 regulator IC. Its output is applied to the battery via a diode, which prevents reverse current and also lowers the voltage a bit.

The resulting charge voltage is about 14.4V, which is fine for charging a gelled or AGM battery to full charge, but is too high as a trickle charger, so dont leave this charger permanently connected to a battery. If you would like to do just that, then add a second diode in series with D3! There is a LED connected as a charge indicator. It will light when the charge current is higher than about 150mA. The maximum charge current will be roughly 400mA. There is an auxiliary output, that provides about 20V at no load (depending on input voltage), and comes down as the load increases. I included this for charging 12V, 4Ah NiCd packs, which require just a limited current but not a limited voltage for charging.

Note that if the charge output is short-circuited, the overcurrent protection of U2 will kick in, but the current is still high enough to damage the diodes, if it lasts. So, dont short the output! If instead you short the auxiliary output, the fuse should blow. I built this charger into a little homemade aluminum sheet enclosure, using dead-bug construction style. Not very tidy, but it works. Note the long leads on the power resistors. They are necessary, because with shorter leads the resistors will unsolder themselves, as they get pretty hot! The transistors and the regulator IC are bolted to the case, which serves as heat sink. The transistors dont heat up very much, but the IC does.

6V 12V Constant Current Battery Charger Circuit PCB Layout Added

The circuit diagram of the charger shown in Fig.1 is centered around the L200 type voltage regulator IC, which ensures constant charging voltage to any connected 6V, 12V battery.
R2 and R3 are the current limiting resistors. The charging current is selected by altering the values of R2 and R3. Strictly, the necessity of R2 holds good if the charging current exceeds 500 mA. The current required for charging is obtained by the relation: l(charging) = 0.45(R2+R3)/ R2R3

The circuit diagram and PCB layout of the above explained 6V 12V constant current battery charger is shown below:

Battery Saver Circuit

A small electronic switch that connects a battery to the equipment for a certain amount of time when a push-button is momentarily pressed. And we have also taken the ambient light level into account; when it is dark you won’t be able to read the display so it is only logical to turn the switch off, even if the time delay hasn’t passed yet. The circuit is quite straightforward. For the actual switch we’re using a well-known MOSFET, the BS170. A MOSFET (T2 in the circuit) used in this configuration doesn’t need a current to make it conduct (just a voltage), which makes the circuit very efficient. When the battery is connected to the battery saver circuit for the first time, capacitor C2 provides the gate of the MOSFET with a positive voltage, which causes T2 to conduct and hence connect the load (on the 9 V output) to the battery (BT1). C2 is slowly charged up via R3 (i.e. the voltage across C2 increases).

Circuit diagram:

Battery Saver Circuit Diagram

This causes the voltage at the gate to drop and eventually it becomes so low that T2 can no longer conduct, removing the supply voltage to the load. In this state the battery saver circuit draws a very small current of about 1 µA. If you now press S1, C2 will discharge and the circuit returns to its initial state, with a new turn-off delay. Resistor R5 is used to limit the discharge current through the switch to an acceptable level. You only need to hold down the switch for a few hundredths of a second to fully discharge C2. In our prototype, connected between a 9 V battery and a load that drew about 5 mA, the output voltage started to drop after about 26 minutes. After 30 minutes the voltage had dropped to 2.4 V. You should use a good quality capacitor for C2 (one that has a very low leakage current), otherwise you could have to wait a very long time before the switch turns off!

The ambient light level is detected using an LDR (R1). An LDR is a type of light sensor that reduces in resistance when the light level increases. We recommend that you use an FW150, obtainable from e.g. Conrad as part number 183547-89. When there is too little light its resistance increases and potential divider R1/R2 causes transistor T1 to conduct. T1 then charges up C2 very quickly through R4, which limits the current to a safe level. This stops T2 from conducting and the load is turned off. The choice of value for R2 determines how dark it has to be before T1 starts to conduct. The battery saver circuit can be added to devices that use 6 or 9 volt batteries and which don’t draw more than 100 mA. The circuit can be built on a piece of experimenter’s board and should be made as compact as possible so that it can be built into the battery powered device.

Mobile Cellphone Battery Charger

Charging of the mobile phone battery is a huge issue while traveling as power supply source is not usually available. In case you keep your mobile phone switched on continuously, its battery will go flat within to six hours, making the mobile phone useless. A fully charged battery becomes necessary when your distance from the nearest relay station increases. Here is a simple charger that replenishes the mobile phone battery within to hours. Fundamentally, the charger is a current-limited voltage source. Usually, mobile phone battery packs need three.6-6V DC & 180-200mA current for charging. These usually contain NiCd cells, each having one.2V rating. Current of 100mA is for charging the mobile phone battery at a slow rate. A 12V battery containing eight pen cells gives sufficient current (one.8A) to charge the battery connected across the output terminals.

Diagram of cellphone charger

The schema also monitors the voltage level of the battery. It automatically cuts off the charging system when its output terminal voltage increases above the predetermined voltage level. Timer IC NE555 is used to charge & monitor the voltage level in the battery. Control voltage pin five of IC1 is supplied with a reference voltage of five.6V by zen-er diode ZD1. Threshold pin 6 is supplied with a voltage set by VR1 & trigger pin two is supplied with a voltage set by VR2. When the discharged mobile phone battery is connected to the schema, the voltage given to trigger pin two of IC1 is below 1/3Vcc & hence the flip-flop in the IC is switched on to take output pin three high.

When the battery is fully charged, the output terminal voltage increases the voltage at pin two of IC1 above the trigger point threshold. This switches off the flip-flop & the output goes low to terminate the charging method. Threshold pin 6 of IC1 is referenced at 2/3Vcc set by VR1. Transistor T1 is used to enhance the charging current. Value of R3 is critical in providing the necessary current for charging. With the given value of 39-ohm the charging current is around 180 mA.

The schema can be constructed on a tiny general-purpose PCB. For calibration of cut-off voltage level, use a variable DC power source. Connect the output terminals of the schema to the variable power supply set at 7V. Fine-tune VR1 in the middle position & slowly fine-tune VR2 until LED1 goes off, indicating low output. LED1 ought to turn on when the voltage of the variable power supply reduces below 5V. Enclose the schema in a tiny plastic case & use suitable connector for connecting to the cell phone battery.

Portable Battery Charger Circuit

This circuit was designed to charge Nicad battery packs in the range of 4.8 to 15.6 V from a convenient remote power source , such as automobile battery. When power is first applied to the circuit applied to the circuit , a small bias current supplied by R1 via winding L1 , starts to turn on the transistor TR1.
This forces a voltage across L2 and the positive feedback given by the coupling of L1 and L2 causes the transistor to turn hard on , applying the full supply across L2. The base drive voltage induced across L1 makes the junction the necessary base current to hold Q1 on.

Battery Powered Night Lamp

This schema is usable as a Night Lamp when a wall mains socket is not available to plug-in an ever running small neon lamp device. In order to ensure minimum battery consumption, one 1.5V cell is used and simple voltage doublers drives a pulsating ultra-bright LED: current drawing is less than 500µA. An optional Photo resistor will switch-off the schema in daylight or when room lamps illuminate, allowing further current economy. This device will run for about 3 months continuously on an ordinary AA sized cell or for around 6 months on an alkaline type cell but, adding the Photo resistor schemary, running time will be doubled or, very likely, triplicates. IC1 generates a square wave at about 4 Hz frequencies. C2 & D2 form voltage doublers, necessary to raise the battery voltage to a peak value able to drive the LED.

Parts:

R1 = 1M
R2 = 1M
R3 = 47K
R4 = LDR
C1 = 100nF-63V
C2 = 220uF-25V
D1 = Ultra Bright 10mm LED
D2 = 1N5819 B1 = 1.5V Battery or AA Cell
IC1 = 7555 CMos Timer IC

Notes:

* IC1 must be a CMos type: only these devices can safely operate at 1.5V supply or less. * If you do not need Photo resistor operation, omit R3 & R4 and connect pin 4 of IC1 to positive supply. * Ordinary LEDs can be used, but light intensity will be poor. * An ordinary 1N4148 type diode can be used instead of the 1N5819 Schottky-barrier type diode, but LED intensity will be reduced due to the higher voltage drop. * Any Schottky-barrier type diode can be used in place of the 1N5819, e.g. the BAT46, rated @ 100V 150mA.

Flashing LED Battery status Indicator

Signals when an on-schema battery is exhausted 5V to 12V operating voltage. A Battery-status Indicator schema can be useful, mainly to monitor portable Test-gear instruments and similar devices. LED D1 flashes to attire the users attention, signaling that the schema is running, so it will not be left on by mistake. The schema generates about two LED flashes per second, but the mean current drawing will be about 200µA. Transistors Q1 and Q2 are wired as an uncommon complementary astable multivibrator: both are off 99% of the time, saturating only when the LED illuminates, thus contributing to keep very low current consumption.

Flashing-LED Battery-status Indicator Circuit diagram :

Flashing-LED Battery

Flashing-LED Battery-status Indicator Circuit Diagram

The schema will work with battery supply voltages in the 5 - 12V range and the LED flashing can be stopped at the desired battery voltage (comprised in the 4.8 - 9V value) by adjusting Trimmer R4. This range can be modified by changing R3 and/or R4 value slightly.

When the battery voltage approaches the exhausting value, the LED flashing frequency will fall suddenly to alert the user. Obviously, when the battery voltage has fallen below this value, the LED will remain permanently off. To keep stable the exhausting voltage value, diode D1 was added to compensate Q1 Base-Emitter junction changes in temperature. The use of a Schottky-barrier device (e.g. BAT46, 1N5819 and the like) for D1 is mandatory: the schema will not work if a common silicon diode like the 1N4148 is used in its place.
