SPIDER Automation | 3.7V 100mAh Micro Li-Po Battery | PCM Protected Compact Power Source
The 3.7V 100mAh Micro Li-Po Battery is a compact rechargeable power source designed for small electronic devices, portable products and embedded systems. Its slim pouch construction allows integration into assemblies where available space and battery weight are important design considerations.
Featuring a nominal voltage of 3.7V and an integrated Protection Circuit Module (PCM), this battery is intended for compatible single-cell lithium-polymer applications. Its specified low discharge rate makes it suitable for low-power electronics requiring a compact rechargeable energy source.
Technical Features & Functional Characteristics
- Micro-Size Battery Format: Compact pouch construction supports integration into small electronic enclosures and space-limited assemblies.
- Rechargeable Li-Po Chemistry: Designed for repeated charging and discharging using a compatible single-cell lithium-polymer charging system.
- Integrated PCM: Includes a battery protection circuit. Specific protection functions and voltage thresholds are not stated in the supplied specifications.
- Low Discharge-Rate Specification: The stated 0.2C discharge rate corresponds to approximately 20mA at the specified capacity.
- Lightweight Construction: Its compact physical profile supports applications where conventional larger battery formats may not fit.
Electrical Configuration & Charging Requirements
This is a single-cell 3.7V nominal lithium-polymer battery. Use a compatible single-cell Li-Po charging circuit with a regulated 4.2V CC/CV charging profile. The nominal voltage is not the battery’s full-charge voltage.
- Charging Voltage: Use a dedicated 4.2V single-cell Li-Po charging circuit.
- Charging Current: Select a charging current appropriate for the battery capacity and manufacturer’s charging specifications.
- Protection Circuit: The integrated PCM is part of the battery assembly; it does not replace a suitable charging circuit.
- Load Compatibility: Ensure the connected device operates within the battery’s voltage and discharge capabilities.
- Connection: Confirm connector type, wire polarity and terminal arrangement before integration. These details are not specified in the supplied product information.
Applications
The compact dimensions and low discharge-rate specification make this battery suitable for compatible low-power electronic products and embedded assemblies.
- IoT Devices: Provides rechargeable power for compact sensor nodes and low-power connected electronics.
