Car battery charger circuit

Car Battery Charger Circuit (Car Battery Charger)

This charger will quickly and easily charge most any lead acid battery. The charger delivers full current unTIl the current drawn by the battery falls to 150 mA. At this TIme, a lower voltage is applied to finish off and keep from over charging. When the the battery is fully charged, the circuit switches off and lights a LED, telling you that the cycle has finished.

Notes
1. The circuit was meant to be powered by a power supply, which is why there is no transformer, rectifier, or filter capacitors on the schematic. There is no reason why you cannot add these.

2. A heatsink will be needed for U1.

3. To use the circuit, hook it up to a power supply / plug it in. Then, connect the battery to be charged to the output terminals. All you have to do now is push S1 (the "Start" switch), and wait for the circuit to finish.

4. If you want to use the charger without having to provide an external power supply, use the following circuit.
