[TriEmbed] what's up for August?

[Scott Hall]

Revisiting the battery charger circuit, I was putting one together myself
for a client and remembered an article I read this summer:

Elektor Magazine
Edition 5/2016, page 70
"50 W Solar Cell Voltage Regulator - For 12 V lead-acid batteries and 12-15
V solar panels"

I just finished loading up our magazine library at Splat*Space from the
several DVD's I donated to it, so you can read and reference the same
article.

Look on the Splat*Server under:
Magazines/Elektor Magazine/articles/2016/EN2016050701.pdf

and the PC board layout and programming HEX files under:
Magazines/Elektor Magazine/extras/2016/080305-[11.zip|PCB.pdf]

What I like is the lot of information about charging lead-acid batteries,
and the engineering of the charging circuit that automatically adjusts
itself to the battery temperature, charging rate, maintenance, and even a
deep-discharge/charge mode for restoring a short-charge battery.
