MIKROE-4058 Microchip Balancer 2 Click, 2-Cell Li-Ion Battery Charger, Overvoltage Protection, SPI

Technical description of the product (MIKROE-4058):

The MIKROE-4058 battery charger features over-voltage protection, optocoupled outputs, independent cell voltage readings, GPIO, and SPI. Balancer 2 Click is an overvoltage protection device for a 2-series cell lithium-ion battery. The Click contains two separate overvoltage battery detection circuits and automatic cell imbalance correction. It can be used for various applications, power tools, portable equipment, and instrumentation, to energy storage systems (ESS), while providing the output voltage at the same time. By utilizing an externally connected power supply, it can charge 2-cell Li-Ion batteries. Type: Battery charger. Applications: Balancer 2 click can be used for voltage monitor, power tools, battery balancing, portable equipment and instrumentation, to energy storage systems (ESS). On-board modules: MCP3202, Dual Channel 12-Bit A/D Converter with SPI Serial Interface, from Microchip. Key Features: Over-voltage protection, optocoupled outputs, independent cell voltage readings. Interface: GPIO, SPI. Compatibility: mikroBUS. Click board size: L (57.15 x 25.4 mm). Input Voltage: 3.3V or 5V.
