From the project
Single-cell LiFePO4 protection circuit (overcharge, overdischarge, charge/discharge overcurrent, overtemperature, undertemperature)
Single-cell LiFePO4 protection circuit (overcharge, overdischarge, charge/discharge overcurrent, overtemperature, undertemperature) used in the Ambient project.
- LiFePO4 charge/discharge protector (HYCON HY2112-CB) - Overcharge protection (i.e., overvoltage from charging circuit): >= 3.75 V (0.15 V hysteresis) up to 12 V. - Overdischarge protection (i.e., cell undervoltage): = 2 A. - Discharge overcurrent (i.e., shorted or high-consumption load): >= 2 A. - Temperature cutoffs (Texas Instruments TMP390): - Charge overtemperature: >= 54 °C (5 °C hysteresis). - Discharge overtempeture: >= +60…
