Lead Acid Battery Charger Description Here is a lead acid battery charger circuit using IC LM 317.The IC here provides the correct charging voltage for the battery.A battery must be charged with 1/10 its Ah value.This charging circuit is designed based on this fact.The charging current for the battery is controlled by Q1 ,R1,R4 and R5. Potentiometer R5 can be used to set the charging current.As the battery gets charged the the current through R1 increases .This changes the conduction of Q1.Since collector of Q1 is connected to adjust pin of IC LM 317 the voltage at the output of…

Car Battery Voltmeter Circuit Description This is a very useful circuit which when installed on your car gives the voltage of you car battery in a LED dot display form.The circuit is based on four comparators made of quad op amp LM324.The inverting inputs of IC are kept at at reference voltages 5.6V,5.2V,4.8V,4.4V respectively at pins 2,6,9,13 by resistors ,R3,R4,R5,R6.The battery voltage is directly fed to the pin inverting input through the voltage divider arrangement using R1 and R7.When there is variation in the input supply the out put of each op amp goes high accordingly as they are wired…
