#134448 - Calculate battery lifetime |
hello all
I'm working on a 8052 project running on batteries I has to keep running an entire weekend (some 50-55h) I want to make a 3.6V or 4.8V stack of batteries. 3.6V has is preferred since this uses 1 battery less ($$ and space), the power consumption is 20mA. What should teh capacity be? the controller (AT89S8253 has a minimum voltage of 2.7V Can anyone help me on this? I was told a 1700mAh battery would supply 1.7A for 1 hour, or 850mA for 2 hours etc.. but does the battery keep it's 3.6V? I hope someone has teh answer Regards! |

| Very simple! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Remember, though: | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| So what? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| 1.2V | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Ah sorry. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Confusing the numbers... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Lithium Ion | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| and 3.7V | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Not for beginner | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| combine AA & AAA | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| So, you intend to use NiCd? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Not a good Idea | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
Minimum capacitiy per cell must be 1300mAh! | 01/01/70 00:00 |
