In the phone, whether it is from a technical point of assessment or from price considerations, the battery has played a very important position. Until now, mobile phones sold on the market, using the battery has been basically completed the transition from the nickel battery to lithium. Perhaps because the cell phone battery has just completed the revolution of the first nickel batteries to lithium, lithium is not uniform, in many cases not correct to say and practice is quite popular. Therefore, to understand a little knowledge of lithium batteries, to master the proper use of lithium is very necessary.
Types of lithium batteries
The secondary battery used in the market are mainly two types of nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) and lithium-ion (Li-ion). Liquid lithium-ion battery (LiB) and lithium-ion polymer battery (LiP) two lithium-ion battery production. Therefore, in many cases, marked on the battery of Li-ion, it must be the lithium ion battery. But is not necessarily liquid lithium-ion battery, there may be a polymer lithium ion battery.
The lithium-ion battery is a lithium battery improved products. Lithium long time ago, but lithium is a highly active (remember its position in the periodic table?) Of metal, it uses less secure, often in charge when burning, burst case, then there is an improved lithium-ion battery, adding the element lithium can inhibit active ingredients (such as cobalt, manganese, etc.) so that the lithium really achieve safe, efficient, convenient, and the old lithium battery will basically eliminated. As to how to distinguish them, able to identify from the label of the battery, lithium battery is Li, the lithium-ion battery is Li-ion. Now, notebook and mobile phone use so-called "lithium batteries", in fact, are lithium-ion battery.
The basic structure of modern batteries, including the three elements of the anode, cathode and electrolyte. As the battery is a lithium-ion batteries also have these three elements. Lithium-ion technology uses a liquid or inorganic gel electrolyte, and therefore needs a sturdy shell to accommodate the active ingredient combustible, which increases the weight and cost of the battery, also limits the flexibility of size and shape. In general, the minimum thickness of the liquid lithium ion secondary battery is 6mm, a further reduction is more difficult.
The so-called polymer lithium-ion battery is at least one or more of the three major tectonic polymer materials as their primary cell system. A new generation of lithium-ion polymer battery is already very high degree of the polymer of thin (0.5 mm thinnest), any area and arbitrary shape, greatly improved battery design flexibility, so the shape can be achieved , which can meet the demand for products made of any shape and capacity of the battery. The same time, the polymer lithium-ion battery, the unit of energy than current lithium-ion battery to improve the 50% capacity, charge and discharge characteristics, safety, operating temperature range, cycle life and environmental performance lithium-ion battery The magnitude of the improvement.
Currently marketed in the liquid lithium ion battery (LiB) in the case of overcharging, likely to cause safety valve rupture resulting in a fire situation, it is very dangerous, so necessary for the installation of the IC circuit protection to ensure that the battery will not occur over- charge of the case. Has good resistance to charge and discharge characteristics of polymer lithium-ion battery, the battery of this type of relatively liquid lithium-ion battery, external plus the protection of the IC circuit requirements can be relaxed. In addition to charging lithium-ion polymer battery can take advantage of IC constant current charging, the lithium ion secondary battery CCCV (Constant Currert-Constant Voltage) charge the manner required, you can shorten the wait time.
Application of mobile phone manufacturers of lithium batteries
Although in recent years almost all manufacturers have already tend to use lithium-ion battery, the world's major mobile phone manufacturers the choice of battery has its own characteristics and habits, for example, had the same historical period:
Nokia: the Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) battery, LiB (liquid lithium-ion) batteries, not LiP, (polymer lithium-ion) batteries.
Ericsson: Ni-MH batteries, battery LiB, LiP battery.
Motorola: Ni-MH battery, battery LiB not use LiP batteries.
Difficult to find, from the first choice of LiP polymer lithium-ion battery for mobile phones on this matter, Ericsson reflect the true nature of mobile phone technology pioneer. I find the data indicate that the main manufacturer of polymer lithium-ion battery for the Day * This SONY, Panasonic, GS, several companies, in 2000 the production volume reached 21 million, of which 50% for Ericsson mobile phones supporting. Enter 2002, lithium-ion battery in the other mobile phone manufacturers on the phone also has extensive application and popularization. However, the use of polymer lithium-ion battery, but also far not reached the degree of popularity, widely used in some time before all mobile phone manufacturers of the products.
On the other hand, although the advantages of lithium-ion battery, but there are defects, such as high prices and less charge and discharge times. Lithium battery charge and discharge times of only 400-600 times, specially modified products, but 800 times. Nickel-metal hydride battery charge cycles to reach more than 700 times, some good quality products to charge and discharge up to 1,200 times, so that a comparison of the nickel-metal hydride batteries than the lithium battery longevity. In addition, the price of nickel-metal hydride battery than the lithium batteries are much lower. Strictly speaking, the lithium battery is the same memory effect, but its memory effect is very low, basically negligible.
Hence, there is no perfect battery.
The use of lithium-ion battery
This is partly the focus of this article, we have three points to talk about.
1, for the new battery charge
Should be noted that the use of lithium, the battery into hibernation place for some time, and lower than normal capacity, the use of time has also come to shorten. However, lithium batteries can easily activated, the battery can be activated as long as 3-5 times the normal charge-discharge cycles back to normal capacity. Battery lithium own characteristics, it is almost no memory effect. The new lithium battery in the user's mobile phone during the activation process does not require special methods and equipment. Not only in theory, from my own practice, from the outset, the standard method of charging that "activation" is the best way.
For the lithium battery "activate" problem, many say: charging time must be over 12 hours, repeated three times, in order to activate the battery. This three times before charging to charge more than 12 hours "it is obvious from the nickel battery (such as nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride) inherited from the argument. Therefore, this argument can be the beginning of miscommunication. Lithium and nickel battery charge and discharge characteristics of a very big difference, and can tell you very clearly, I had access to all the serious official technical data emphasized that the charge and discharge lithium batteries, especially lithium liquid ion battery can cause great harm. Charge and therefore the best charge in accordance with the standard time and standard methods, particularly not more than 12 hours long charge. Typically, the statement introduced mobile phone charging method is suitable for the phone's standard charging method.
In addition, the lithium cell phone or charger after the battery is full will automatically stop charging, there is no electricity nickel charger for 10 hours "trickle" charge. In other words, if your lithium batteries in full, on the charger white filling. And we can not guarantee the battery charge and discharge protection circuit features and never change and quality foolproof, so your battery will be long in a dangerous brink. This is also another reason to charge against the chief.
In addition, for some on the phone, charging over a certain time, if they do not remove the charger system not only does not stop charging will begin to discharge - charge cycle. Perhaps the makers of this approach has its own purpose, but obviously in terms of the life of battery and cell phone / charger is unfavorable. Long charging takes a long time, often at night, while the situation of China's power grid voltage of the night in many places higher, but also volatile. Said earlier, the lithium battery is very delicate, it is much worse than the nickel electric resistance fluctuations in the charge and discharge capacity, so this brings additional risk.
In addition, another aspect can not be ignored is the lithium battery is also not suitable for over-discharge, over-discharge of lithium is also very unfavorable. This leads to the following questions.
2, in normal use should start charging
We often see this argument, because the charge and discharge cycles is limited, so you should phone the battery as much as possible run out of recharge. But I find that a lithium-ion battery charge and discharge cycle test table, the cycle life of the data is as follows:
Cycle life (10% DOD):> 1000
Cycle life (100% DOD):> 200 times
DOD is the abbreviation of the depth of discharge. Be seen from the table, the charge number and depth of discharge, 10% DOD cycle life than the 100% DOD for much longer. Of course, if equivalent to the relative total capacity of the actual charge: 10% * 1000 = 100,100% * 200 = 200, the latter complete charge and discharge, or better than some, but in front of friends do say that some correction: in the normal case, you should have a reservation in accordance with the principle of charging the remaining battery run out of charge, but if your battery when you expected to be two days can not persist throughout the day, you should start charging, of course, if you are willing to back charger to the office is a different matter.
You need to be charged to meet the anticipated upcoming busy communications event cause, even when the batteries are still a lot more than electricity, then you also just charge ahead, because you are not really lost a "charge cycle life , that is, "0.x" times, and often this x will be very small.
The remaining battery run out of charge of the principle does not want you to go to the extreme. And long, like charging widespread a statement, "as far as possible to the cell phone battery runs out, it is best to use automatic shutdown". This practice is only practice on nickel batteries, the purpose is to avoid the occurrence of memory effect, unfortunately, it also lithium spread today. It has been been used because the cell phone battery low warning appears, still do not charge to use the automatic shutdown of the examples. The results of this example, the mobile phone charging and starting later no response, had to give customer service overhaul. In fact, this is due to the battery due to excessive electrical discharges cause the voltage is too low, that does not have the normal charging and start-up conditions.
3, the correct practice of the lithium cell phone
To sum up, the issue of charging and discharging of the lithium cell phone in use is the most important tips are:
① charge its standard time and procedures, even before three have to do so;
② When the cell phone battery is too low prompt, it should be as much as possible in a timely manner to start charging;
(3) lithium battery activation does not require special methods will naturally activate the phone to normal use lithium. If you insist on spreading the three previous 12 hours long charge to activate "method, in fact, there will be no effect.
Therefore, all 12 hours long pursuit rechargeable lithium cell phone used in the automatic shutdown of the practice, they are wrong. If you ever do is the wrong argument, you correct them in time, perhaps not too late.
Of course, in the case of mobile phone and charger to protect themselves and control circuit of good quality, protection of lithium batteries or a considerable assurance. Understanding of the charging rules is the key, in some cases can make some concessions. For example, you find that the phone must be charged before you sleep at night, then you at bedtime to start charging. The crux of the problem, you should know what is the correct approach, and do not deliberately do the wrong argument.
