Constant Current Constant Voltage SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply)

This constant current constant voltage SMPS can be used to efficiently charge a battery. This circuit gives 7.2V at constant voltage mode, and 600 mA at constant current mode. Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit: The mechanism is simple, when the load impedance is high, then the output voltage will be [...]

Switch Mode Lead Acid Battery Charger

More efficient lead acid battery charger can be implemented using switch mode circuit. A switch mode for lead acid battery charger can be constructed using bq24105 battery charger controller. The bq24105 was originally designed to charge single-, two- or three-cell Li-ion and Li-polymer battery packs. Its features doesn’t include the control for lead acid battery [...]

Sealed Lead Acid Battery Charger: Dual Step Current Charger Mode

All of the necessary circuitry to optimally control the charge and hold cycle for sealed lead acid battery can be implemented using UC2906 series of battery charger controllers. These integrated circuits monitor and control both the output voltage and current of the charger through three separate charge states; a high current bulk-charge state, a controlled [...]

Transformerless, Switch Mode Boost Regulator, A Step-Up Converter

Using this switch mode regulator circuit, you can get a stable 12 volt output (500mA) although you just have 4,3 – 10V power supply. You can even boost a 3.5V input to 12V if the load draws only 100 mA or less. This switch mode voltage regulator use LTC1266 IC chip from Linear Technology. Here [...]
