Description
The TP4056 1A Li-Ion Battery Charging Board with Micro USB and Current Protection is a tiny, highly reliable module designed specifically for charging single-cell 3.7V lithium-ion (Li-Ion) cells—such as 18650 or 16550 types—that lack their own onboard protection circuit. Based on the mature TP4056 charger IC and DW01 protection IC, this board delivers a stable 1A charge current and automatically cuts off when the charging cycle is finished.
Featuring automated machinery processing and rigorous pre-shipment testing, this module offers exceptional reliability. It includes comprehensive multi-layer safeguards, cutting off the load when battery voltage drops below 2.4V to prevent deep over-discharge, while also protecting against over-voltage and short-circuits. Dual-color LED indicators provide clear real-time status telemetry (Red for active charging, Green for fully charged).
Note: Product images are for reference only; actual appearance or labeling may vary slightly based on manufacturing batches. Batteries are not included.
Key Features
- Micro USB & Pad Power Input: Equipped with a standard Micro USB port, plus dedicated IN+ and IN- solder pads for flexible 4.5V to 5.5V DC power connection.
- Stable 1A Charging Current: Delivers up to 1A of precise charging current tailored for single-cell 3.7V lithium-ion batteries.
- Advanced Protection Circuitry: Built-in safeguards protect against over-current, over-voltage, short-circuits, and low-voltage over-discharge.
- Automatic Cut-Off & Recharge: Automatically terminates charging when full capacity is reached and restarts if cell voltage drops.
- Dual LED Status Telemetry: Integrated LED indicators display Red during active charging and Green when the battery is fully charged.
- Mature IC Architecture: Utilizes the reliable TP4056 and DW01 chip configuration for high charging accuracy and minimal peripheral complexity.
- Compact PCB Footprint: Measures just 25 × 20 mm for effortless integration into custom enclosures and portable electronics.
