TP4056 Lithium-ion Charger Module with USB-C PD

I have a USB-C version of one of these TP4056 Lithium-ion charger modules. It works well so far from limited testing (the battery I've used has its own protection), but there's a lot more to test. The problem I'm having is that it works perfectly…

Adding power path to TP4056 solar battery charger and limit output voltage to 5.5 V or below

I have a 6 V solar panel and a bunch of TP4056 modules with the battery protection circuits lying around and I thought I'd use them to make a solar powered BLE circuit with the nRF52840 dongle for some future projects as also have a couple of those…

TP4056 battery output (charging voltage) is not constant

I tried to design a charging circuit based on the TP4056 Li-po charger chip. At a USB voltage of 5 V, the battery charging output (Pin 5 of the TP4056) is 4.3 V. This seems acceptable, but there seems to be no regulation in my circuit as the battery…

Is this a good way to make 2S 18650 battery cell while parallel charging?

I want to make a battery pack with 7.4 volt output and I want to charge them with 1A each so I connect them parallelly and input them with 5A 6A DC adapter. (No charging and using at the same time) Is this a good way? Update: I have change my…

LM1117 LDO - Vout variability?

I have two LM1117T through-hole low dropout regulators that I bought from two different sources. Both are labeled as the 3.3V variant. I'm reading about 4.2 V across Gnd and Vin. One reads 3.27V on Vout, and when I hot-swap the other one instead, it…

TP4056 circuit component question

I have a circuit that was made for me some time ago by an electrical engineer. But looking at many other TP4056 circuits I see that my circuit has a few parts that no one else has. So my question is, what are these parts purpose? My circuit:

TP4056 - Charge while load is used with Zener diode

I'd like to add a zener diode to my tp4056 in order to be able to use the load while the battery is charging. Context: I found this post that looked promising however I lack electronics knowledge and I'm not sure I understood the answer…

DW01A not allowing power in TP4056 circuit

Edit: Used wrong resistor at R_BAT1. The schematic was correct, the part I used was wrong. I am using the following charging circuit. It is the standard circuit taken from the datasheets. But it is not working. The line on the right leads to an…

Chaining TP4056 modules, the proper way

I know a similar question was asked before, but still, it didn't aswer what I'm looking for. I need to charge a series of 6 Li-ion cells, and maybe 12 in the future for a voltage hungry project. Since a have a bunch of TP4056 modules laying around,…

Wiring problems on the TP4056 Module

I have been thinking of putting a 18650 Li-ion battery salvaged from an old laptop power battery to use so, I bought a few of those cheap TP4056 battery protection and charge circuit modules and I am a bit confused. I accidentally bridged the two B+…

Circuit for Charging 3.7V Lithium Polymer battery with Arduino Nano's 5V output

I am building a circuit that charges a Lithium Polymer Battery with Arduino Nano IoT's 5V output. The idea is simple: while I connect USB to Arduino Nano, it starts charging the battery through TP4056. When disconnecting the USB, the battery powers…

How to implement load sharing for charging a Li-ion battery when charger outputs less current than consumed by load?

I modified by TP4056 charge module like this Adding power path to TP4056 solar battery charger and limit output voltage to 5.5 V or below. But my charger's output is wind-powered so varies a lot, sometimes less than 5 mA, but constantly at 5 V. The…

Using li ion battery when it is under charging with TP4056 IC

I have a device that uses li-ion battery and the device is also connected to battery directly. For charging I have used TP4056 IC. Flow is like this, V_charge(5v) -> TP4056 -> Battery & load (No load sharing switching while charging). Now this is…

Help with battery charge circuit on STM32F4

I followed some sources and came up with a battery charge circuit. The way it's wired "should" also give reverse polarity protection to the circuit. Could someone help me understand if I have designed this circuit correctly? How is the current…
