Certainly! Let's take a look at your circuit connections. You are using the TP4056, DW01A, and FS8205A.
Here are some typical connections for these components in a battery charging and protection circuit:
TP4056 Connections
  • VCC: Connect to the power source (e.g., USB VBUS).
  • GND: Connect to the common ground.
  • BAT: Connect to the positive terminal of the Li-Po battery.
  • PROG: Use a resistor to ground to set the charge current.
  • CE: Used for chip enable, connected to VCC if always enabled.
  • TEMP: Used for thermistor, normally connected to a suitable resistor divider or left floating if not used.
  • ~CHRG and ~STDBY: Status indicator pins, connect to LEDs as needed.
DW01A and FS8205A Typical Connections
These components work together to provide overcharge and over-discharge protection:
  • DW01A:
    • VDD: Connect to the positive terminal of the battery.
    • GND: Connect to the common ground.
    • CO: Connects to G2 of the FS8205A to control charging protection.

In a typical Li-Po battery protection circuit:
  • S1 and S2 of the FS8205A (dual N-Channel MOSFET) should indeed be connected together. Here's how these connections generally work:
  1. S1/S2 Connection to Ground:
    • S1 (U3:S1) and S2 (U3:S2) should be connected to the common ground. This ensures the MOSFETs can control the flow of current between the battery and the circuit.
  2. Connection to Battery Negative:
    • In some configurations, the common connection of S1/S2 might be connected to the battery negative terminal, especially if the protection circuit is inline between the battery and the load/charger.
In your project setup:
  • U3:S1 and U3:S2 are part of the GND net, ensuring that they are connected to the common ground.
  • The battery negative terminal (B-) should also be part of this ground net to ensure that current can return to the battery appropriately.
So yes, if S1 and S2 are connected to the common ground and sharing the same electrical connection as the battery negative, then it should provide the necessary pathway for current flow controlled by the MOSFET.
Make sure that your routing reflects these connections, and double-check any vias/traces on your PCB layout to confirm connectivity. If you've aligned to this configuration, your setup should function correctly in terms of grounding and battery return paths.
1y
Are S1 and S2 connected to common ground and battery negative ?
1y
Let's clarify the connections for the FS8205A MOSFET and ensure everything is properly set up:
Connections for S1 and S2
  • S1 (U3:S1) and S2 (U3:S2):
    • These should be connected to the common ground. In a typical battery protection circuit using FS8205A, S1 and S2 act as the source terminals for the N-channel MOSFETs, and they should be tied to the ground.
    • For the battery negative connection, you should ensure that the common ground net includes the battery negative terminal. This ensures that current can safely return to the battery.
Connections for D1 and D2
  • D1/D2 (U3:D1/D2):
    • These serve as the drain terminals of the MOSFETs.
    • Connect D1/D2 to the positive terminal of the battery. This allows the MOSFETs to control the flow of current to and from the battery. The connection manages both charging and discharging paths, ensuring the protection mechanisms function properly.
Typical Setup
  • D1/D2: Connect to the positive terminal of the battery.
  • S1/S2: Connect to the common ground, ensuring it's part of the same net as the battery negative.
Your current project setup indicates:
  • U3:S1 and U3:S2 are indeed connected to the GND net, which should be shared with the battery negative to form a common ground.
  • U3:D1/D2 is already connected to Net 4, which should include the positive terminal of the battery.
Please confirm whether these connections are as described in your circuit. If they are, your battery protection and charging circuit should have the necessary electrical paths for safe and effective operation. Let me know if there's any additional detail needed!
1y
And where do D1 and D2 need to be connected again ?
1y
Let's verify the connections for the FS8205A to ensure your Li-Po battery protection and charging circuit is correct:
DS8205A Connections
  • D1/D2 (U3:D1/D2):
    • These are the drain terminals of the MOSFETs.
    • They need to be connected to the positive terminal of the battery. This allows the MOSFETs to control the charge and discharge paths of the battery.
Current Setup Verification
Your project setup indicates the following connections:
  • U3:D1/D2U3:D1/D2 is connected in Net 4 alongside:
    • U1:BATU1:BAT
    • C2:P1C2:P1
    • R4:P1R4:P1
    • R5:P2R5:P2
Net 4 should include the positive terminal of the battery, ensuring that D1/D2 is appropriately connected for battery charge and discharge control.
Common Issues to Avoid:
  • Ensure D1/D2 is not mistakenly connected to ground or a non-battery voltage net.
  • Make sure that all ground connections are common and connect back to the battery negative.
If these elements are aligned according to this setup, your FS8205A MOSFET connections supporting battery protection should be correctly implemented. If there are specific wiring or net concerns, double-check the PCB layout for any unintended trace overlaps or misroutes. Let me know if there's anything specific you'd like to delve into further!
1y
Check for any errors now please
1y
Let's conduct a thorough review of the circuit connections for your Li-Po battery charging PCB involving the TP4056, DW01A, and FS8205A.
Key Connections to Review
  1. TP4056 (U1) Connections:
    • VCC (U1:VCC): Connected to the USB power source, which appears to be J2:VBUSJ2:V-BUS and J2:V-BUS__1.
    • BAT (U1:BAT): Should connect to the positive terminal of the battery and is currently part of Net 4 with U3:D1/D2U3:D1/D2, ensuring path control for charging/discharging.
    • GND (U1:GND): Correctly connected to ground.
    • PROG (U1:PROG): Needs a resistor to set charge current; connected to R3:P1R3:P1 in Net 12.
    • Other pins
      • ~CHRG and ~STDBY: Check their connections to ensure LED functionality (appear properly connected in nets).
      • CE: Make sure it's tied high or otherwise correctly configured to enable charging.
  2. DW01A (U2) Connections:
    • VDD (U2:VDD): Needs connection to battery positive; connected via Net 10.
    • GND (U2:GND): Correctly connected to ground.
    • DO (U2:DO): Must connect to U3:G1U3:G1 for discharging control; mapped to Net 5.
    • CO (U2:CO): Must connect to U3:G2U3:G2 for charging control; mapped to Net 1.
    • VM (U2:VM): Should monitor battery voltage and is connected to ground in ef02e8bd5a335cfb17a646431fbdb.
  3. FS8205A (U3) Connections:
    • S1/S2 (U3:S1 and U3:S2): These should connect to the common ground, which they do.
    • D1/D2 (U3:D1/D2): Should connect to the battery positive, ensuring integral charge/discharge pathways. Currently part of Net 4, which is correct.
Potential Issues or Recommendations:
  • Observe the Battery Monitoring (VM): Ensure proper connection to the positive terminal for effective operation. Currently, it's part of a ground net, which may require repositioning.
  • Ensure Net Integrity: Verify that all critical nets do not have unintended crossovers or disconnections using the view or inspection system available in your CAD tool.
Summary:
  • Most critical connections seem correct, but attention should be paid especially to VM on DW01A.
  • Ensure U2:VMU2:VM is correctly measuring the battery voltage (consider rerouting if it should connect to battery positive instead of merged GND).
By confirming these setups and addressing any unanticipated grounds, your project should be consistent with a functional battery charging and protection circuit. If this reveals any oversights, I recommend making the adjustments and re-checking traces in Flux. Let me know more details if any specific connection appears suspect or incomplete!
1y
can you check if everything is OK? I feel like it isnt
1y
Let's check the connection for VM on the DW01A for any potential issues.
Current Connection Status:
  • VM (U2:VM): It is currently connected to R5:P1 in the GND net.
Recommended Correction:
  • VM is used for voltage monitoring and should typically be connected to the positive terminal of the battery, not directly to ground. This ensures it can properly sense the battery voltage to control over-discharge protection.
Action Required:
  • Disconnect U2:VM from the ground net.
  • Connect U2:VM to the same net as the positive terminal of your battery, which in your setup might be Net 4 (since it includes U1:BAT and U3:D1/D2).
By correcting this connection, it will enable the DW01A to perform its intended function of monitoring the battery voltage, which is crucial for effective battery protection.
Let me know if there's anything else you would like to adjust or verify in your circuit!
1y
Is VM still connected to ground? If it is, where is it connected
1y
Let's review the connections and confirm the status.
VM (U2:VM) Connection:
  • In your current configuration, U2:VM is connected to R5:P2. It is part of Net 15, which currently might not be properly configured for voltage sensing.
Recommended Configuration for VM:
  • VM should be connected to the battery positive terminal to monitor the battery's voltage. This way, it can effectively control the over-discharge protection feature by the DW01A. Ensure that VM is connected to Net 4, as it contains the positive connections related to the battery.
Regarding R4 Before VCC on U2:
  • R4 is not typically required before VCC on U2 (DW01A) in a standard Li-Po protection circuit setup.
    • The DW01A typically connects directly to the positive terminal via VDD without a need for an inline resistor at VCC.
    • Ensure that U2:VDD is connected directly to the battery positive or your circuit's VCC that corresponds to uninterrupted voltage levels.
Recommendations:
  • Reconfigure VM (U2:VM) to connect with the battery positive effectively, not the ground.
  • Ensure there’s no inadvertent resistor between VDD and the power source unless specifically outlined for limiting current or part of a customized feature.
These changes will help ensure your protection circuit is correctly configured. Let me know if anything is unclear or if you'd like further help adjusting these connections!
1y
Do i need R4 before vcc on U2 ?
1y
For the DW01A, the typical configuration does not require resistors before the VCC or VM pins. Here's a breakdown of what each pin typically requires:
VDD (U2:VDD)
  • Connection Requirement: Directly connect to the battery positive terminal. This pin powers the DW01A, and a direct connection is standard for providing accurate battery voltage to the IC.
  • No Resistor Required: Use a direct connection to ensure full voltage for proper monitoring and control.
VM (U2:VM)
  • Connection Requirement: Connects directly to the battery positive terminal for voltage monitoring.
  • No Resistor Needed: The VM pin needs to accurately track the battery voltage to handle proper charge and discharge protection.
Resistors are generally not used in these paths because they can introduce voltage drops, compromising accuracy in voltage detection and protection features.
Summary and Recommendations:
  • Direct Connections: Ensure VDD and VM are directly wired to the battery's positive terminal.
  • Remove Resistors: Avoid placing resistors on these lines unless your circuit's specific requirements call for current limiting or voltage division for custom features.
Having these pins accurately reflect the battery voltage is essential for the protective functions provided by the DW01A. Let me know if this helps or if there are more aspects of your circuit you'd like to discuss!
1y
do i need a resistors before vcc VM on U2
1y
Let's systematically assess your current setup for the DW01A, focusing on the connections to ensure they support effective battery protection:
Current Configuration Summary:
  1. VDD (U2:VDD)
    • Should be connected directly to the battery's positive terminal to power the DW01A. This ensures accurate sensing and operation.
  2. VM (U2:VM)
    • Also should connect directly to the battery's positive terminal to monitor the battery voltage accurately. This is crucial for detecting over-discharge conditions.
  3. CO (U2:CO)
    • Connected to U3:G2U3:G2, allowing it to control the charging path via the MOSFET.
  4. DO (U2:DO)
    • Connected to U3:G1U3:G1, allowing it to manage the discharging path via the MOSFET.
Errors to Watch For:
  • Resistor Usage: Normally, you don’t need resistors in series before VDD or VM for standard operation. Ensure the pins are directly connected to the appropriate net reflecting the battery's voltage accurately without resistive drops.
  • Check All Nets: Confirm there are no stray connections or unintended short circuits that might obscure the circuit's logic or save path routing.
What to Verify in Layout:
  • Ensure that U2:VDD and U2:VM are on a net that directly interfaces with the battery positive.
  • Confirm that U3's S1/S2 are indeed linked to ground, and that D1/D2 engage with the battery positive terminal.
  • Double-check, using a schematic view in Flux, that each net has consistent names and electrically wise links to ensure connectivity is stable across the layout.
If all checks out, your configuration should effectively protect against overcharge/discharge scenarios. Let me know if further insights or schematics checks are needed!

  • Battery Positive Connections (Net 4, Net 10): Ensure clarity in which nets hold charge control, particularly if needing splits.
  • Control Outs (CO/DO): Properly routed to G1/G2 on N-Channels of FS8205A to control charging/discharging.
Additional Considerations:
  • Ensure No Floating Pins: Double-check status pins like SHDN, PG signals have LED or pull-ups where needed, especially on monitoring ICs.
  • R4 Values: Confirm what functionality it’s providing in the circuit if applied to limits.
Conclusion
By aligning each connection flow and cross-referencing with intended operation specifics, particularly around the TP4056 and FS8205A, you should be well on track. If any particular signal/condition seems to deviate from expected roles, refining these could optimize performance. Let me know if a specific section on schematic needs further audit!
11mo
Ok. How about now ? Will it work as intended ?
11mo
Let's revisit the schematic components to ensure everything is correctly connected and functioning as intended. I'll highlight the critical areas for focus:
Components and Their Connections

  • VM Connection: Reset this pin if linked inadequately, needing voltage source reliability readings.
  • Status Indicators: Confirm LED diodes/indicators function as feedback for end-user status when charging/discharging.
Final Analysis
Your design seems to properly align the protection and charging circuits with standard Li-Po management schema. Pending the verification above (especially of VDD and VM paths for the DW01A), your circuit should operate as intended.
If these verifications match your schematic corrections, your setup is well-optimized for Li-Po charging and safeguard operations. Feel free to probe with additional questions or specify nuances where refinement may be necessary!
11mo
Can you tell me on the C type connector which pins are the D+ and D- ?
11mo
In your project, the USB Type-C connector is designated as J2. Typically, the D+ and D- pins on a USB Type-C connector are used for USB data lines, which correspond to the traditional USB 2.0 data signals.
USB Type-C D+ and D- Pins:
  1. D+ (USB Data Plus)
    • Pin Designation: Typically corresponds to DP1 and DP2.
    • In your setup, it should be J2:DP1 and J2:DP2.
  2. D- (USB Data Minus)
    • Pin Designation: Typically corresponds to DN1 and DN2.
    • In your setup, it should be J2:DN1 and J2:DN2.
The USB Type-C specification allows these signals to be mirrored to accommodate connector reversibility, hence both DP1/DP2 and DN1/DN2 are present. Make sure they are routed correctly to your USB data interface or any intended communication IC to ensure correct functionality.
If you need these signals connected for USB data communication or for enabling fast charges using specific protocols, verify their continuity within your circuit design. Let me know if you have any other questions or need further assistance!
11mo
Do i need to connect anything else from the USB C ? I only need the power +, GND and data pins.
11mo
For a project where you are primarily using the USB-C connector for power delivery and basic data $D+$ and $D-$, here are the essential pins that need to be connected:
Essential USB-C Connections
  1. Power and Ground:
    • VBUS (J2:VBUS): Connect to your input power rail. In most USB-C connectors, there are multiple VBUS pins (such as pins 15 and 16), so ensure they are all connected if applicable.
    • GND (J2:GND): Connect all the ground pins to your common ground net. Typically, these are pins 7 through 12 on a USB-C connector.
  2. Data Lines:
    • D+ (J2:DP1, DP2): Connect to the $D+$ line of your USB interface circuit.
    • D- (J2:DN1, DN2): Connect to the $D-$ line of your USB interface circuit.
Other Considerations
  1. CC Pins (Configuration Channel):
    • Not strictly necessary for basic power and data applications, but for proper USB-C detection and for enabling specific power modes, you may need to connect the CC1 and CC2 pins. Typically, they can be grounded through resistors to indicate your device’s power requirements to the source.
  2. Optional/Unused:
    • If you don't utilize features like USB-C alternate modes, DisplayPort, or other advanced functionality, you can leave the SBU1, SBU2, and similar pins unconnected.
By focusing on these connections, you form a basic implementation catered around power delivery and data. If you experience issues differentiating power delivery levels or interfacing with certain devices, exploring connections to CC pins might be worth consideration. Let me know if there are specific features or functions you'd like to explore more!

For a red LED with a higher wavelength within the red spectrum, you might consider the XZM2CRK45WT-9:
  • Wavelength: 640 nm [1], which is on the higher side of the red spectrum.
  • Price Range:
    • Digi-Key: $0.19847–$0.67
The XZM2CRK45WT-9 offers a longer wavelength compared to more typical red LEDs and might provide the deeper red hue you're seeking. However, the cost is higher compared to the LTST series from your library. If price is crucial, a compromise on wavelength might be necessary unless more options are explored outside the current list.

Finding a cost-effective and powerful UV LED, particularly with a specific wavelength such as 365 nm, can be challenging due to the typically higher cost associated with UV LEDs compared to visible-light LEDs. However, here are a few points you might consider when looking for one:
  1. Typical UV LED Applications: UV LEDs are commonly used in applications such as curing, phototherapy, fluorescence, and sterilization.
  2. Factors Affecting Cost: The price of UV LEDs can be influenced by the wavelength precision, power output, and packaging technology.
  3. Vendor Comparison: You'll often find better prices by comparing vendors and considering bulk purchases.
  4. Potential Sources: Check with major electronics component distributors or suppliers like Digi-Key, Mouser, or LCSC, as these distributors often carry a range of UV LEDs.
Unfortunately, I don't have direct access to external databases for a specific part with 365 nm, but I'd recommend searching on these platforms and specifying your parameters for wavelength and cost to find the best option for your needs.
If you have additional constraints or specific requirements for your project, let me know so I can provide more tailored advice!

I apologize for the inconvenience, but it seems that within the provided project excerpts and components, there are no UV LEDs listed. It's common for UV LEDs, especially those in the 365 nm range, to be less frequently included in general-purpose libraries due to their specialized nature.
Here are some general suggestions for sourcing one:
  • Digi-Key: Offers a range of UV LEDs. Filtering by wavelength (around 365 nm) and comparing prices should help find a competitive option.
  • Mouser: Provides various UV LEDs, often with options for bulk purchases that reduce cost per unit.
  • Other Suppliers: Consider smaller or specialized suppliers who may offer more competitive pricing for UV LEDs.
To find a powerful yet affordable UV LED on these platforms, you would typically:
  1. Set filters for the target wavelength (e.g., 365 nm).
  2. Compare the power ratings and luminous intensity.
  3. Look at pricing, specifically for bulk options if applicable.
You might need to balance between the wavelength accuracy and pricing, as more precise or high-power LEDs might command a premium. If you have specific parameters or suppliers you frequently use, focusing on those could be fruitful.
