Army Scientists Boost the Single Cell Battery Energy Density
Regardless of battery chemistry-alkaline,nickel cadmium (NiCd),or nickel metal hydride (ni-mh battery)-in single-cell applications the battery voltage can be drained as low as 0.8 V-0.9 V when the battery is finally empty.Ideally,the dc/dc boost converter start-up/operating voltage range should be specified down to this voltage range.This is true of Texas Instruments’ TPS6101x family of devices;the start-up […]
