Product description: Lipo Charger - charging module for Li-Pol batteries via microUSB - DFRobot DFR0667
Integrated charging moduleLipo Charger from DFRobot. It is designed to charge one3.7VLi-Polbattery cell. The small size allows the module to be used in many scenarios and applications. The charger has a built-inTP4056Xchip, which makes chargingfastandsafe. The module allows you to adjust the power parameters to your individual needs - it is possible to set up to three charging modes:50 mA,200mA and500 mA(default 50mA).

Lipo Charger - how to use
Connect the Lipo Charger module to an external power source via themicroUSBport. There is anLEDon the module to indicate the operating status:flashingwhen no battery is connected;onwhen a battery cell is connected;offwhen the battery is fully charged. In addition, you can connect an extraexternal indicatorto continuously check the charge level of the cell. Charging is possible in three modes:sustainedcharging,direct currentcharging anddirect voltagecharging. The user can also choose thecurrent value, but the choice must take into account the capacity of the battery being charged:
- from 100 mAh to 400 mAh - 50 mA
- 400 mAh to 1000 mAh - 200 mA
- > 1000 mAh - 500 mA
The integrated Lipo Charger from DFRobot has a selectable charging current level.Attention!
The low current mode can be used to charge a high capacity battery, but the high current mode cannot be used to charge a low capacity battery. The battery may explode if the charging current is too high.
