Description
The TP4056 5V Micro USB 1A Lithium Battery Charging Board is a compact charging and protection module designed for single-cell 3.7V Li-ion and LiPo batteries, including commonly used 18650 cells. It provides a convenient way to charge rechargeable lithium batteries from a 5V USB power source through its Micro USB input.
Based on the TP4056 charging IC and battery protection circuitry, this module provides a charging current of up to 1A and terminates charging when the battery reaches approximately 4.2V. The built-in protection functions help protect the connected battery from over-discharge and excessive current conditions.
The board includes separate B+ and B- terminals for the battery and output terminals for connecting a suitable load. Its small PCB size makes it useful for DIY electronics, portable devices, battery-powered projects, Arduino projects, LED applications, and other single-cell lithium battery applications.
