2.12 Charging Circuit
Since a rechargeable battery will be used in the portable unit for power away
from the base unit, there must be a method of recharging the battery. There are
several options available for such a task. However, the unique considerations of
the portable unit and project as a whole will require an examination of various
charging solutions to choose the optimal solution for this project.
While rechargeable batteries have many unique properties themselves with
respect to aspects such as number of recharge cycles, capacity, safety, size, and
many other criteria, their unique charging needs can also be exhaustive. Each
battery requires its own method of charging, and has various tolerances to such
general events as insufficient power, too much power, high temperature, and
other power events.
