LITHIUM & MICRO BATTERIES: TYPES AND FEATURES

Ever since Panasonic became the first company in the world to develop and commence

the mass production of Lithium batteries for consumer products in 1971, Panasonic has

launchedaseriesofLithiumbatteriesinmanyshapesandsizesincludingcylindricaltypes,

cointypesandpintypes.Panasonichasalsosuccessfullyintroducedcointyperechargeable

Superior safety

Lithium batteries feature stable substances for the active

materials and a structural design that assures safety and,

as such, their superior safety has been verified from the

resultsofrepeatedlysubjectingthemtoanumberofdiffer-

SELECTING A BATTERY

Thestepsforselectingthebatteriesforthepowersuppliesof

specificequipmentaresummarizedbelow.

Preparation of required specifications (draft)

Therequiredspecifications(draft)arestudiedbycheckingthe

requirements for the batteries to be used as the power sup-

pliesofthespecificequipmentandtheirconditionsagainstthe

battery selection standards. The technical requirements for

battery selection are shown in the table below for reference

purposes.

Selection of a battery

Selectseveralcandidatebatteriesbyreferringtothecatalogs

anddatasheetsofbatterieswhicharecurrentlymanufactured

and marketed. From this short list, select the battery which

will best meet the ideal level of the requirements. In actual

practice, however, the ‘perfect’ battery is seldom found by

thismethod, instead, thebasicprocedurefollowedshouldbe

to examine the possibility of finding a compromise or partial

compromisewith the requiredspecifications (draft)and then

make a selection under the revised requirements from the

batteriescurrentlymanufacturedandmarketed.Suchapro-

cedure enables batteries to be selected more economically.

Questionsandqueriesarisingatthisstageshouldbedirected

toour batteryengineers.Sometimes, although itmay not be

shown in the catalog, the appropriate battery has become

available through recent development or improvement. As a

rule,therequiredspecificationsarefinalizedatthisstage.

Requests for developing or improving batteries

If thebattery thatmeets theessentialandspecific require-

ments cannot be found through the selection process

described above, a request for battery development or

improvementshouldbemadetoourtechnicaldepartment.A

requestlikethisshouldbecoordinatedasearlyaspossibleto

allowforasufficientstudyperiod.Whilethisperioddepends

on the nature of the request and the difficulties involved, a

leadtimeofatleast6to12monthsisusuallyrequired.

MODEL NUMBER

How to interpret the model numbers generally used for coin

The model numbers are normally indicated using two upper-

case English letters and a figure consisting of three or more

digitsasshownintheexamplebelow.Thisnumberingsystemis

Selecting batteries

Whenselectingbatteries,giveconsiderationtosuchfactors

as the current consumption of the equipment in which the

batteriesaretobeused,theexpectedlifeofthebatteries,and

temperature intheoperatingenvironment.At lowoperating

environment temperatures, the consumption current of the

ICsdropsbutthedischargevoltageofthebatterieswillalso

decrease.Alsoitisimportanttonotethatthecapacitydete-

riorationofbatteriesinlong-termusebecomessignificantat

Reverse current blocking diode

SinceLithiumprimarybatteriesarenotrechargeable,useof

areversecurrentblockingdiodeandaprotectiveresistorin

intheequipmentcircuit.Useadiodewithalowleakcurrent

asthereversecurrentblockingdiode.Tomaintainthechar-

acteristicsofacoin typeLithiumbattery, the totalcharging

amountof thebatteryduring its totalusageperiodmustbe

keptwithin3%ofthenominalcapacityofthebattery.

For example, assuming that a CR-2477 (1,000mAh) will be

usedinamemoryback-uppowersupplyfor5years,charging

by the leak current of the reverse current blocking diode

shouldbenogreaterthan30mAh(=3%of1,000mAh),thus:

30mAh÷usageperiod(5yearsx365daysx24hours)=0.7μA.

Inotherwords,aleakcurrentblockingdiodewhosereverse

CHARGING

Charging circuits

Thechargingcircuit iscrucial in termsofensuring that full

justice will be done to the battery characteristics. Consider

itcarefullyasthewrongchargingcircuitcancausetrouble.

Precautions regarding the charge voltage setting

Under no circumstances should constant current charg-

ing, which is used for Nickel-Cadmium batteries, be used.

Ignoringthisprecautionwillcausethebatteryvoltagetorise

CHARGING

Charging circuits

Thechargingcircuit iscrucial in termsofensuring that full

justice will be done to the battery characteristics. Consider

itcarefullyasthewrongchargingcircuitcancausetrouble.

Precautions regarding the charge voltage setting

Under no circumstances should constant current charging,

whichisusedforNickel-Cadmiumbatteries,beused.Ignoring

thisprecautionwillcausethebatteryvoltagetorisetoabout

CHARGING

Charging circuits

Thechargingcircuit iscrucial in termsofensuring that full

justice will be done to the battery characteristics. Consider

itcarefullyasthewrongchargingcircuitcancausetrouble.

Precautions regarding the charge voltage setting

Under no circumstances should constant current charging,

whichisusedforNickel-Cadmiumbatteries,beused.Ignoring

thisprecautionwillcausethebatteryvoltagetorisetoabout

5V,resultinginadeteriorationofperformance.

Charge voltage range

If a fixed-charging method is applied, please adhere to the

specifiedchargingvoltage.Guaranteedvoltageis1.8Vto2.6V

atthetemperatureof-10°Cto+60°C.

If the charging voltage exceeds the specifications, the

internalresistanceofthebatterywillriseandmaycause

battery deterioration. Also, with a charge voltage around

3V,corrosionofthe terminal(case)mayoccur,causing

leakage.

It is not possible for the battery capacity to recover com-

pletelywhenthechargingvoltageisbelowthespecification.

PREVENTING QUALITY PROBLEMS

Reduction of battery voltage and deterioration of capacity

(1) Reduction of battery voltage and deterioration of capacity

through contact with antistatic conductive materials

Incidents have been reported where terminal-mounted bat-

teries for memory back-up or coin type Lithium batteries

havecomeintocontactwithantistaticconductivematerials,

thusformingexternaldischargecircuitsandleadingtovolt-

agedropsorcapacitydeterioration.

In manufacturing plants using ICs, LSI and other semicon-

ductor components, thoroughgoing antistatic measures are

taken.Variousprotectivematerialsareusedtopreventstatic:

mostof themhavespecialcompoundsofcarbon,aluminum

foil and other metals and are therefore conductive. These

protective materials are used, for example, in the form

of packaging bags, trays, mats, sheets, films, corrugated

boardsandresincases.

A protective material may have a resistance ranging from

103to106Ω/cm,forinstance.Thismeansthatifthe and

terminalsofabatterycomeintocontactwiththismaterial,a

currentrangingfromseveralmilliamperestoseveralmicro-

amperes will flow and the battery will discharge, causing

voltagedropandcapacitydeterioration.

Whenbatteriesaretobeusednearprotectivematerials,take

every possible care to ensure that the and terminals

of the batteries or PC boards, etc. on which batteries are

mounteddonottouchtheseprotectivematerialsdirectly.
