the nitty gritty:
I
t's arguably the only "high cap­
acity" fast battery charger you'll
ever need - ever again!
It
will
easily handle all the batteries you have
in your power tools - it will even
charge your car or motor bike battery!
And while it won't handle low ca­
pacity "AA" cells it can charge their
big brothers - 1200mAh and above ­
along with "C" and "D" types of
1200mAh or more. For a more de­
tailed list, see the panel at right or

tion in last month's

most difficult part is winding the inductor (bottom right) but even this is a snack!

14106011 and measuring 121 x
173mm.
If IC1 is the surface mount or .. T"
version, a small satellite PC board,
coded 14302982 and measuring 29 x
16mm is also required.
TransformerT1 is mounted sideways
onto the rear metal panel as shown in
the photographs. Underneath its mount­
ing position on the case are several
integral ribs and bushes (mounting pil­
lars). These must be removed to allow
the transformer to si t flat.
The easiest way to remove the ribs
is with a sharp chisel (careful!!) while
the bushes are easily cut out with a
large, sharp drill bit.
The main PC board fits over four
integral bushes in the base of the case,
secured with self-tapping screws.
Other bushes (under the board) may
get in the way of the PC board or
components - again, these can be eas­
ily removed with a large drill.
Begin construction by checking the
PC board against the published pat­
tern. There should not be any shorts
between, or breaks in, the tracks. If
there are, repair these as necessary.
PC stakes are used wherever con­
nections need to be made to the PC
board. These are soldered in first, in
the positions indicated. Doing these
first also acts as a guide to the posi­
tions of the links and resistors, which
can be soldered in next. Use the ac­
companying table as a guide to work­
ing out which resistor goes where - or
measure them with a digital multi­
meter.
Note that some resistors are mount­
ed as a parallel combination: one is
inserted as normal from the compo­
nent side of the PC board while the
second (shown in red in Fig. 2 at right)
is soldered between the pigtails of the
first resistor on the underside of the
PC board.
When inserting the smaller diodes
and zeners, take care with their orien­
tation and be sure to place each type
in its correct place. Solder in the ICs
and transistors, also taking care to ori­
ent them as shown.
As mentioned before, IC1 may be
supplied as a surface-mount type.
If
so, it must first be soldered onto the
small carrier PC board, which in turn
is connected to the main PC board
with wire links or pin headers.

let's see ... each length will be, uhh,

Next remove the insulation from
one end of each of the two lengths of
wire and terminate (solder) the two
ends onto two pins on the underside
of the transformer bobbin. The actual
pins used doesn't matter since they
are connected together on the PC board
anyway.
Now wind on the two windings of
20 turns by holding both lengths of
wire between your thumb and forefin­
ger and winding them on as one (ie,
side-by-side).
Once wound, cut the excess wires
off, strip the insulation from their ends
and terminate the wires onto the pins
on the opposite side of the former.
Again, the actual pins used are not
important.
Insert one core in place and secure
with a clip. Now place the lmm
spacers on the two faces of the in­
serted core and place the second core
in position, securing it with the clips
supplied. Insert this inductor assem­
bly into the appropriate place on the
PC board and solder in place.

wiring must be insulated with heatshrink tubing, as shown on the fuseholder at right of picture.
