WHAT IS THE MCP1630 LOW COST NIMH BATTERY CHARGER
REFERENCE DESIGN?
WHAT THE MCP1630 LOW COST NIMH BATTERY CHARGER REFERENCE
DESIGN KIT INCLUDES
The MCP1630 Low-Cost NiMH Battery Charger Reference Design is a complete
stand-alone constant current battery charger for a three series cell NiMH or NiCd
battery pack. Different battery chemistries (i.e. Li-Ion batteries connected in series) can
be charged with minor modifications to the firmware or with the MCP1630 Low-Cost
NiMH Battery Charger Reference Design. This board utilizes Microchip’s MCP1630
(high-speed PIC
PIC12F683 (Flash MCU SOIC8). The input voltage range for the demo board is 6V to
14V. The output is capable of charging at a fast charge rate of 1.3A constant current.
An input terminal block is provided to apply the input voltage to the charger. An output
header is also provided as a means to connect the external battery pack or simulated
battery load and external 10K thermistor. A programming header is available for
updating the firmware contained in the PIC12F683.
This MCP1630 Low Cost NiMH Battery Charger Reference Design kit includes:
• The MCP1630 Low-Cost NiMH Battery Charger Reference Design Board,
• Analog and Interface Products Demonstration Boards CD-ROM (DS21912)
