Re: Li-ion power mod

Please forgive me if I was somewhat rude. You are partly right. Of cource, the regulator MAY be unstable when difference between the input and output voltages becomes small. But it does not stop regulating ! Simply, the characteristic becomes nonlinear, which facilitates self-oscillations. Whether i...

Re: Li-ion power mod

As far as regulating the 3.3V supply directly from the Li-Ion battery, it is a bad idea. Draining a Li-Ion battery down to 3.0V or even 2.8V is perfectly acceptable... Yes. You are 100% right. On my drafts only the principle is reflected. The protection devices are not shown there. Moreover, a low ...

Re: Li-ion power mod

So, I don't like to join debates, but: 1. We are geeks, I think. We, usually, do not looking for "easy way", right ? :) 2. It is so difficult - to replace TWO components ? Advantages: 1. Increased battery lifetime [or/and] small size battery can be used. (More free space in the case.) 2. L...

Yes, we are guilty of global warming. :lol: What now ?
right design.png
Something else ? Yes !
