    摘要: A device (111) for simulating a high battery temperature used in charging a rechargeable cell (101). The device takes advantage of a control signal generated by a voltage control circuit (103) used to disconnect a rechargeable cell (101) from a charging system (105) when a predetermined voltage is reached. The device (111) is generally used with cells having a lithium based chemistry and requiring a different charging regime then nickel chemistry cells. The device (111) is activated by the control signal from control circuit (103) which detects a predetermined voltage from rechargeable cell (101) enabling thermistor (113) to change its state. This change is detected by the charging system (105) which alters its mode of operation from a rapid charging rate to a slower charging rate. The device is retrofitable to existing rechargeable batteries allowing them to be charged using existing charging systems alien to the rechargeable battery.

    摘要: A battery pack 12 for powering a device 14 sensitive to input voltage contains a protection switch 28 and a control circuit 26. When the battery pack 12 is charged by a charger 10 and the voltage of the battery pack approaches the maximum safe level of the device 14, the control circuit 26 causes the protection switch 28 to electrically switch open to protect the device 14 from excessive voltage potentially output by the charger. Where the cells 16 are lithium ion cells or a type having a maximum safe voltage, a safety switch 49 is included to interrupt charge current 52 through the cells 16. The safety switch 49 is delayed by resistor/capacitor network 51, 53 so that it switches after the protection switch 28. The safety switch 49 includes a diode 58 to allow the device 14 to remain powered while the safety switch is blocking charge current. Further, diodes 40 and 42 are required to eliminate measurement error of the control circuit 26 if the battery pack 12 is charged through the device contacts 20 and 24.

    摘要: A current limited linear regulator including a pass transistor 56 is provided with a shutdown circuit 64 comprised of a shutdown transistor 90, base resistor 92, and zener diode 98. When a excessive load is placed on the regulator and the current level limit is reached, the output voltage begins to drop and the voltage drop V2 across the pass transistor 56 increases. When the voltage drop V2 across the pass transistor 56 is equivalent to the sum of the zener voltage of the zener diode 98 and the emitter-base junction bias voltage of the shutdown transistor 90, the transistor 90 switches a current into bias resistor 62 that prevents the control circuit from regulating the output, causing the pass transistor to become highly resistive and shut off. The shutdown circuit holds this condition until the offending load is effectively removed. The zener diode is chosen according to the power rating of the pass transistor 56 and the predetermined current level limit.
