Description
Alarms and security
This NiCd battery Charger can charge up to 7 NiCd batteries connected in series. This Audio
number can be increased if the power supply is increased with 1.65V for each supplementary Automotive
battery. If Q2 is mounted on a proper heatsink, the input voltage can be increased at a Digital
maximum of 25V. Unlike most of comercial NiCd chargers available on the market, this
For home
charger has a reverse polarity protection. Another great quality is that it does not discharge
the battery if the charger is disconnected from the power supply.

General electronics
Usually , NiCd batteries must be charged in 14 hours at a charging current equal with a High voltage
tenth percent from battery capacity. For example, a 500 mAh is charged at 50 mA for 14 Infrared
hours. If the charging current is too high this will damage the battery. The level of charging
LED and light
current is controlled with P1 between 0 mA – 1000 mA. Q1 is opened when the NiCd battery
Metronome
is connected with the right polarity or if the output terminals are empty. Q2 must be
mounted on a heatsink. If you cannot obtain a BD679, then replace it with any NPN medium Microcontroller
power Darlington transistor having the output parameters at 30V and 2A. By lowering R3 Miscellaneous
value the maximum output current can be increased up to 1A. PC related
