circuitos de banco de energia simples
caseiros
Última atualização em 23 de fevereiro de 2020por Swagatam (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/author/swag/)
O artigo apresenta 4 circuitos de banco de energia variados usando célula de 1,5 V e célula de
íon de lítio de 3,7 V que podem ser construídos por qualquer indivíduo para sua funcionalidade
de carregamento de celular de emergência pessoal. A ideia foi solicitada pelo Sr. Irfan
São Paulo
É basicamente uma caixa de banco de bateria que é inicialmente totalmente carregada pelo
usuário em casa e depois carregada para fora durante a viagem. Quando o usuário descobre
que a bateria do seu celular ou smartphone está fraca, ele conecta o banco de energia ao seu
celular para uma recarga de emergência rápida do celular.

No entanto, no presente pedido, o banco de energia precisa ser construído usando células de
íon-lítio 3,7 V cujo parâmetro de voltagem se torna bastante inadequado para carregar um
telefone celular que também usa um parâmetro de bateria idêntico.
O problema reside no fato de que quando duas baterias ou células idênticas estão conectadas
entre si, esses dispositivos começam a trocar sua energia de modo que, finalmente, uma
condição de equilíbrio é alcançada em que ambas as células ou baterias são capazes de
atingir quantidades iguais de carga ou níveis de potência.
Portanto, em nosso caso, suponha que se o banco de energia que utiliza uma célula de 3,7 V
está totalmente carregado a cerca de 4,2 V e aplicado a um telefone celular com um nível de
célula drenado em, digamos, 3,3 V, então ambas as contrapartes tentariam trocar a energia e
atingir um nível igual a (3,3 + 4,2) / 2 = 3,75V.
Mas 3,75 V não pode ser considerado o nível de carga total para o telefone celular, que na
verdade precisa ser carregado a 4,2 V para uma resposta ideal.

Como pode ser visto no design acima, um circuito carregador carrega uma célula 3,7 V, uma
vez que o carregamento é concluído, a caixa da célula 3,7 V é carregada pelo usuário durante
a viagem, e sempre que a bateria do celular do usuário cair, ele simplesmente conecta. Pacote
de celular 3.7V com seu celular para recarregar rapidamente.
Conforme discutido no parágrafo anterior, a fim de permitir que o banco de energia de 3,7 V
seja capaz de fornecer os 4,2 V necessários a uma taxa consistente até que o celular esteja
completamente carregado neste nível, um circuito de aumento se torna obrigatório.

O LED não é necessário, os pontos de LED podem ser usados como o terminal de saída para
carregar seu smartphone
A bobina é composta por núcleo de ferrita Torroidal T18, com 20:10 voltas para primário e
secundário, utilizando fio isolado de PVC flexível multivertido (7/36). Isso pode ser
implementado se a entrada for de um pacote de 5nos de células AAA de 1,5 V em paralelo.
Se você selecionar a célula Li-Ion na fonte de entrada, a relação pode precisar ser alterada
para 20:10 voltas, sendo 20 no lado da base da bobina.
O transistor pode precisar de um dissipador de calor adequado para dissipar de forma ideal.

Aqui, o TIP122 junto com seu zener básico se torna um estágio regulador de tensão e é usado
como carregador de bateria estabilizado para a bateria anexada. O valor Zx determina a
tensão de carga e seu valor deve ser selecionado de forma que seja sempre um pouco mais
baixo do que o valor de carga total real da bateria.
Por exemplo, se uma bateria de íon de lítio for usada, você pode selecionar Zx como 5,8 V
para evitar que a bateria sobrecarregue. A partir desses 5,8 V, o LED cairá em torno de 1,2 V e
o TIP122 cairá em torno de 0,6 V, o que permitirá que a célula de 3,7 V obtenha cerca de 4 V, o
que é suficiente para o propósito.

Para 1,5 V AAA (5 em paralelo), o zener pode ser substituído por um único diodo 1N4007 com
seu cátodo voltado para o solo.
O LED é incluído para indicar aproximadamente a condição de carga total da célula conectada.
Quando o LED acende fortemente, você pode assumir que a célula está totalmente carregada.
Embora o design acima seja eficiente e recomendado para uma resposta ideal, a ideia pode
não ser fácil para um iniciante construir e otimizar. Portanto, para usuários que podem
concordar com um design ligeiramente de baixa tecnologia, mas uma alternativa DIY muito
mais fácil do que o conceito de conversor de impulso, podem estar interessados nas seguintes
configurações:
Os três projetos de circuito de banco de energia simples mostrados abaixo utilizam um número
mínimo de componentes e podem ser construídos por qualquer novo amador em segundos
Embora os projetos pareçam muito simples, ele exige o uso de duas células de 3,7 V

Thank you sir for this eye opening, I’m a layman but i find the 4 example very simple to do. I mean
where 1N5408 and 7805IC was used.
But I would like to integrate the TIP122 and the zener diode circuit unit in the TIP122 emitter
follower circuit into it and I don’t know how to do it. Can you please give me a diagram for the
integration?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for bothering you sir, the 7508 is now charging my phone and it increases the charge
but it’s damn too slow, what can I do to correct that?
Reply
Swagatam says
Try two 7805s in parallel and check the response, but make sure to put both over the
same heatsink
Jayman says
Thank you sir, after using two 7805 in parallel the charging speed showed a positive
response.
At that time the battery pack voltage was at 7V and the output voltage was 4.9V.
But when the phone was charged to about 54 percent, the battery voltage as decreased to
6.1v and the output voltage was 4.1v respectively.
At this point the phone only shows charging but didn’t increase again.
Then I noticed that both the 1N5408 and the 7805 that was generating heat before is not
heating up again but was cold.
Swagatam says
Jayman, it is the internal circuitry and connections of the phone which is causing the
battery to switch at different charging rates. If it would be an open battery you
wouldn’t have had such issues.
If your 7805s heats up then it may not be supplying proper current for the phone

In that case you will have to replace it with a 5 amp regulator such an LM338
regulator circuit with heatsink or the one that is shown below:

Sir, I’m confused a bit at the zener diode point. I want to connect a red LED to it as shown in the
original design before this integration was done. But which terminal of the diode will I connect to
the red LED and which terminal will go out to the negative point for charging the cell from the
zener diode?
Reply
Swagatam says
Novice, you can connect the LED in series with an appropriately selected zener diode,
just make sure that together they produce an output voltage of 8.4V for the battery
pack. The longer leg (anode) of the LEd will to transistor base
Reply
Jayman says
I couldn’t get LM 338 only LM 317 is available at my reach here and the maximum amp that it
could give is 1.5 can I connect it in parallel just like I did for 7805?
Reply
Swagatam says
That will give you with great difficult near 3 amps if the heatsink is really large. make
sure to connect both of them over a common heatsink.
Before that, test each of the ICs separately through their standard variable voltage
regulator designs, as explained below, if both the ICs work correctly, then you can
put both of them in parallel with the resistor/pot network

In the second to the last diagram, can we reduce the input voltage to 5v/2A so that normal phone
charger can be used to recharge the cell.
And can the batteries be more than two let’s say for example arranging 5 in parallels in 2 segments
and then connect the two back in series so as to increase the mAh of the battery to up to 10,000
mAh and more while the voltage will remain at 7.4V. is that possible and does it need any
additional components to achieve that?
Reply
Swagatam says
5V cannot be used to charge two 3.7V cells in series, that is why 8.4V is shown in the
second last diagram.
Yes you can connect as many cells you like, in series/parallel connections to increase the
mAh capacity of the power bank as per the required specifications.

But at the end of the page you recommend 12v charger won’t it cause a damage to the circuit?
Then there’s no indicator led in the circuit how do I know when the cell is fully

Hi swagatam
my question is what is the principle behind switching off of the 6v/200mAH bulb as the battery get
charged?
thanks a lot
Reply
Swag says
Hi Abba, as the battery reaches full charge level, the TIP122 emitter also reaches a point
where it is almost equal to the base voltage which stops the transistor from conducting any
further and also the battery stops accepting any further current, together this stops any
current from flowing into the battery and thus shuts down the bulb
Reply
abba says
hi Swagatam
I appreciate your effort for explaining the circuit and the concept behind them. my question is can
you please elaborate more on how diode 1N4007 can be use to keep the transistor BC557 off
during the charging phase of the battery(first circuit)?
thanks in advance
Reply
Swag says
Thanks Abba, the 1N4007 from the TIP122 emitter applies a direct positive voltage on the
base of BC557 which blocks the negative supply from the 10K resistor and thus shuts
down the base bias for the BC557

it can be difficult for me to troubleshoot your circuit without checking, if you are not able to
optimize the boost circuit you can simply use a LMN317 power supply, set it at 4.1V and
charge a Li-Ion cell which has an AH eating much higher than your cellphone battery, and
use the set up as the power bank

Novice, if your mobile phone is showing “charging” then it must keep charging, it
shouldn’t decrease. You can put one more 1N5408 diode at the OUT pin of the 7805
and check the response. The 7805 will heat up since it is a linear IC, you will have to
use a heatsink with it to control the heating. If you want minimum heat dissipation then
you may have to replace the 7805 circuit with the following one:

Hi Swagatham
For Ni-Cd cells, the charging current is calculated by deviding 'Battery capacity Ah/10'.

Hi Anil,
as a rule of thumb for Li-ion and Lipo batts you can use a charging current as high as their
AH level…so for example if the AH of the battery is 2AH then the charging current could
be 2amps, but the temperature of the batt could be crucial and will need to be monitored
manually or by some automatic method

…if your cellphone is disconnecting the power due to fluctuations then you can add
another pack of 4 cells in parallel or try bigger 1.2V cells

Is there any idea that can modefie or improve the above circuit like for example adding of a small
solar panel to charge up the battery 3.7v.

Thanks Angelous, yes definitely you can use a suitably rated solar panel and use it to
charge the 3.7V cells.

sir why did you used bulb? it is possible to change that into the red LED?

Bulb will pass sufficient current for charging the battery and also indicate the situation,
LED will not pass sufficient current and will not serve purpose, it will remain lit forever, not
allowing the battery to get charged.

LED will require an external circuit for the indications… which can make the circuit more
lengthy…

Mayank, you can calculate and change the 0.6 ohm resistor for fixing the desired current
capacity of the circuit…accordingly the cell mAH will also need to be upgraded to the
intended level

Irfan, Everything's shown in the diagram, I am sorry if you are not able to understand the
diagram then it would mean that you are very new in the electronics field, and this circuit
can be extremely difficult for a new comer…so I think you should rather try the other 3
circuits instead of the first….

Irfan, the cell will not discharge unless connected to a cell phone
the cell will not overcharge but when the indicator lamp shuts off you should remove the
input supply…
