What is Constant current and constant voltage charging?

Constant current and constant voltage charging is a charging method that continuously adjusts the current and voltage to charge the battery. During the charging process, first keep the charging current constant until the battery voltage reaches the set value, then keep the charging voltage constant until the charging current drops to the set value. This charging method can effectively control the charging state of the battery, improve charging efficiency and speed

Working principle of constant current and voltage charging

The working principle of constant current and voltage charging is based on the charging characteristics of the battery and the voltage current relationship during the charging process. At the beginning of charging, the voltage of the battery is low and the current is high. In order to maintain constant current charging, the charger will provide a constant current based on the characteristics and charging needs of the battery. As the charging process progresses, the voltage of the battery gradually increases and the current gradually decreases. When the voltage of the battery reaches the set value, the charger will switch to constant voltage charging mode. In constant voltage charging mode, the charger will keep the charging voltage unchanged until the charging current drops to the set value. This is because as the battery approaches a fully charged state, the rate of voltage rise will accelerate, and it is necessary to reduce the charging current to avoid overcharging and damage to the battery. The constant voltage charging mode can effectively control the charging current and protect the safety of the battery

The advantages of constant current and constant voltage charging

A. Fast Charging

Constant current and constant voltage charging can provide a constant current based on the characteristics and charging needs of the battery, allowing the battery to quickly charge to the set voltage. The constant current charging stage can maximize the charging speed.

B. High Charging Efficiency

Constant current and constant voltage charging can adjust the charging current and voltage according to the characteristics and charging needs of the battery to achieve the best charging efficiency. The constant current charging stage can fully utilize the power of the charger and improve charging efficiency.

C. Protect the battery pack

Constant current and voltage charging can avoid overcharging and battery damage by adjusting the charging current and voltage. The constant voltage charging stage can control the charging current to protect the safety of the battery

Summary

Constant current and constant voltage charging is an efficient, fast, and safe charging method. The effective charging of the battery can be achieved by switching between constant current charging and constant voltage charging stages.

The proportion of constant current and constant voltage charging can be adjusted according to specific charging needs to achieve the best charging effect. Constant current and constant voltage charging has advantages such as fast charging, high charging efficiency, and protecting battery safety.

In practical applications, we can choose an appropriate constant current and constant voltage charging ratio based on the characteristics and charging needs of the battery to achieve the best charging effect.
