4.2.1.3 Battery Source Power Supply Design Guidelines
•The desired nominal output for the power supply is 3.8V and the maximum voltage allowed is 4.2V, hence a single 3.7V
The three cells Ni/Cd or Ni/MH 3,6 V Nom. battery types or 4V PB types MUST NOT BE USED DIRECTLY since their maximum voltage can rise over the absolute maximum voltage for the
NOTE: DON'T USE any
•A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks, a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suited.
•Make sure the low ESR capacitor (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V.
•A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the GE863- QUAD/PY from power polarity inversion. Otherwise the battery connector should be done in a way to avoid polarity inversions when connecting the battery.
•The battery capacity must be at least 500mAh in order to withstand the current peaks of 2A; the suggested capacity is from 500mAh to 1000mAh.
