ABSTRACT:
A battery charger, particularly suitable for use with aircraft, receives power from a variable source of direct current power. The received power voltage is boosted to a level no lower than a preselected level above battery voltage and regulated so that a constant charging current is supplied to a battery under charge in each of several charging modes. The charger has controls which are responsive to various battery parameters and circuitry to initiate various safety signals. The constant charging current is supplied by a buck regulator which has MOSFET transistors connected to form a current regulating loop.
