A lithium-ion battery charger for charging up to eight cells

Benefits of using Lithium-Ion batteries have made them the best choice for mobile applications like Cameras, Laptops, Electric-Vehicles, etc. On the other hand, charging and using these batteries demand observing some precautions, which would otherwise lead to battery damages. These are of more importance when batteries of multiple cells are involved. In this paper after reviewing the charging methods of multiple cells, an implemented battery charger, which can charge batteries comprised of up to eight cells, is introduced.
