Summary
- Name: Smart Battery Charger with Graphical Data Logger
- Status: still developing, java is close to working.
- Technology: Java -- should run on many platforms, Windows 98 through Vista, Mac, Linux PIC, could be BitWacker or even other microcontroller with serial port.
- Author: russ_hensel ( where you can find an email address to reach me )
- License: not fully determined, but open source and object code.
Purpose:
A complete log of activity is provided both to the screen and to a log file.
This is one of a series of articles on Microcontroller Serial Communications, rooted at this site here: Microcontroller Serial Communications Articles
Screen
Notes:
- Comming soon
Some Features
- Charging data graphed and saved to log file.
- May be used to charge, discharge, test, or cycle batteries.
- Charging algorithim on the PC: High current phase may be ended by peaking, time limit, or voltage limit
Menu Choices
- File -> Exit
- Closes the comm port and exits the application.
- File -> About the Application
- About Box for the Application
- More comming as work proceeds.
Download and Install
See the page BitWacker PIC and Other Microcontroller to Java Communications for the Java Components. For the microcontroller and other hardware email me.
