Weekly ProgressI have already tested new charger circuit. First time, I set voltage and current to charge

battery is 8 V and 375 mA (0.25C). It still affect to high temperature of LM317. So I decrease current to 300 mA (0.2C). To limited voltage and current, I adjust RV1 and RV2 from calculation as below:

Time period=60min( Battery ' s CapacityCurrent )=60min( 1500mAh300mA )

¿300minutes ¿5hours

Efficientcy loss20%=300min+( 20 x300min100 ) ¿(30060)min ¿360min¿6hours

Ploss = (Vin – Vout) Icharge = (12 V – 8 V) x 300 mA = 4 V x 300 mA = 1.2 W

Vout = 1.25V (1+R2R1

)+ IAdjRV 1

8V=1.25V (1+ R2240 )+(100uA)RV 1

8V=1.25V +1.25 R2240

+(100uA)RV 1

8V=1.25V +(5.208m)RV 1+(100uA )RV 1

8V−1.25V=(5.208m)RV 1+(100uA)RV 1

8V−1.25V=(5.208m)RV 1+(100uA)RV 1

6.75 V = (5.308 x 10-3) RV1

RV 1=6.75V

(5.308x 10−3)= 1271.665411 Ω

RV2 =V BEImzx

=0.6V300mA

= 2 Ω

PRV2 = (V BE) Icharge = (0.6 V) x 300 mA = 0.18 WAfter testing the circuit, I designed PCB, make PCB, put electronic device to the PCB and

test the circuit again.

Strong Point- The temperature of LM317 is cool down. - Size PCB of new circuit is same as old circuit.- The circuit can be fined current by adjust RV2.

Week Point- When I connect the contactor between the platform and the body, it is not strong and

sometime the contactor is disconnected.

Next Week JobDo the English report.
