Using Input Current Limiting to Extend Battery Life

The input current limit is active during normal operation as well as during startup. This effectively limits the inrush current, and can also be used to reliably charge heavy loads, such as a supercapacitor, from a weak battery. The converter has eight current limit …

Can I use a standard current limiting circuit for battery charging?

Can I use a standard current limiting circuit for charging Lipo batteries Only for the CC stage of the charging cycle.

Charging your lithium-ion batteries: 5 expert tips for a longer

When the battery provides current, electrons are moving from the anode to the cathode outside the battery. Applying reverse current allows the battery to recharge itself: the electrons are sent back to the anode and, the lithium ions re-intercalate themselves in the cathode. This restores the battery''s capacity. The whole …
