Dear Folks,
I have seen a NiCd battery charger design in Elector magzine. It is
a simple series charger which receives dc voltage from a adapter and
the dc is given to the battery through a series resistor. The author
of the article has some design principles for a good battery charger
1. The output of the adapter should be 1.17 of the nominal battery
votlage
2. Charging current should be 1/4 of the battery capacity. That is
if the battery is of 1Ah then the charging current should be 250mA.
The series resistor is valued accordingly.
Any comments on these assumptions.
Thank you,
Yashwant.
