Enhanced battery "gas gauge" keeps its data through glitches -  20-Jan-05 Issue of EDN  Texas Instruments' BQ2010 battery-"gas-gauge" IC offers a convenient method for recording available charge stored in a nickel-cadmium or nickel-metal-hydride battery. However, even though plenty of charge remains available, under certain circumstances, transient-current spikes can fool the BQ2010 into registering a discharged battery....

Experimental Alternator Controller -  Scroll down to find this circuit.  Here is an experimental (and simple!) regulator for alternator chargers.  (schematic added 05/05/05)
Intelligent NiCd/NiMH Charger/Cycler with 128x64 Graphical LCD  -  The accu cycler project presented here is an excellent solution for charging and discharging NiCd and NiMH accumulators for R/C modelers and others who make use of these accumulator types. With its performance it is very close to the many of the commercial products available on the market. ….(design added 11/08)

iPOD-MP3 Player Charger -  Portable iPod charger that you can use while away from your computer. The circuit is based around an MC34063 switchmode regulator.  This has high efficiency so that there is very little heat produced inside the box, even when delivering its maximum output current. The circuit is more complicated than if we used a 7805 3-terminal regulator but since the input voltage could be 15V DC or more, the voltage dissipation in such a regulator could be 5W or more at 500mA. and 5W is far too much for a 7805, even with quite a large heatsink. ….(design added 11/08)
L200 charger circuit -  ….must register on this site... [Published in Elecktor July/August 2010]
Li-ion Battery Charger -  This is a charger for lithium ion batteries which takes its power from the USB port of a computer. It uses the MCP73861 or MCP73863 Li-ion battery charger chip manufactured by Microchip. Microchip MCP73861 or MCP73863 are advanced, fully-integrated, single-cell Li-Ion/Li-Polymer charge-management devices allow these peripherals to utilize the full power of the USB port. ….(design added 11/08)
Li-Po Charger & Balancer -  This is a Li-Po charger and balancer project for R/C hobby.The charger circuit is based on the circuit of Electron head and all folks in the DIY electronics topic on the rcgroups.com. ….(design added 11/08)
Low-battery-voltage cutoff consumes just 1 mA -  9/11/98 EDN-Design Ideas  A low-battery voltage-cutoff circuit prevents overdischarge of a rechargeable battery. An obvious requirement of this circuit is extremely low power consumption. Figure 1a's simple circuit has a measured current consumption of approximately 1.2 mA and uses only two components to perform the low-battery cutoff function for a four-NiCd battery....File has several circuits, please scroll to find this one....
