Simple Lithium-ion/ Lipo Battery Charger - This is a Lithium-ion
charger for lipo batteries. Circuit schematic shows configuration for charging
single 3.7V lipo battery but voltage can be set to charge several batteries in
series. Lipo charger sets a current limit with the LM317, and 1 resistor, and
the voltage limit with the TL431, and 2 resistors. 1K resistor is needed to let
the TL431 decrease the LM317 current, and to provide the necessary current to
the TL431. The optional Schottky diode at the output will prevent current
flowing back from battery to the charger circuit when power is disconnected, and
reverse biasing of the LM317. Power supply with more than 3V above output
voltage is required. ….(electronic schematic added 11/08) |

Solar Powered Lithium Ion Battery Charger -
The circuit below feeds a controlled current and voltage to a 3.6v lithium ion
battery. The current is limited to 300ma and the voltage is limited to 4.2
volts. The circuit uses a LTC1734 IC from Linear Technology. No diode is needed
between the circuit and a 6 volt solar panel....…. [Hobby Corner Circuit by Dave

Switching Current Pump Makes Better Charger - 01/16/97 EDN-Design
Ideas Many currently proposed battery-charger designs are simply voltage
regulators redesigned to be current sources. Unfortunately, this design approach
is far from optimal because it leads to unnecessary hardware redundancy and
complexity. This type of charger also raises a stability problem because
of the additional active device in the feedback loop....[Design Idea added
