Title:	Development of an intelligent nickel-cademium battery charger
Authors:	Raath, Dirk Francois
Keywords:	Electrical engineering

Abstract:	This thesis describes the control system as well as the charge and discharge circuitry developed to efficiently charge nickel-cadmium batteries. Due to incorrect usage and charging of these batteries their life-spans and output capacities are drastically decreased. Efficiency is improved by cycling the batteries which extends their life-span and performance. "Cycling" refers to a discharge and charge process.
