Disconnect Load from Battery - 03/14/96 EDN Design Ideas: To prevent battery damage, the circuit in Figure 1 disconnects the load at a predetermined level of load voltage. This load voltage, VTRiP, is closely proportional to the battery voltage. R1 and R2 determine the level of VTRiP that corresponds to voltage of 1.15V at pin 3 of IC 1. A voltage of 1.15V at pin 3 of IC 1 causes the internal comparator to trip. Thus, VTRiP=1.15 (R1+R2) /R1 Design by Michael Keagy, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA
Disconnect Load from Low-Voltage Supply - 04/24/03 EDN Design Ideas: Circuit ensures safety in power-on operation. Power supplies often include a circuit that disconnects the load when the supply voltage drops too low, such as when a battery is nearly discharged. A p-channel MOSFET connected between supply and load is the typical approach. However, a 1.5V single-cell battery or other low-voltage supply is insufficient to fully turn on the MOSFET. For such low-voltage systems, consider the circuit of Figure 1. Design by Steve Caldwell
