Mini hybrid power management board for lithium batteries. It charges a LiPo via a solar panel (4.4-6V) or Micro-USB port while providing a stabilized 5V output.
Ideal for outdoor autonomous projects, it automatically switches between external source and battery when sunlight is unavailable, ensuring continuous power supply.
This mini charger board manages and recharges a lithium-ion (LiPo/Li-Ion) battery from either a solar panel or a USB source. Designed for outdoor autonomous applications (UAVs, model toys, camping), it integrates the CN3065 charge management chip and the ETA1036 boost converter.
When an external power supply (solar or USB) is available, the board powers the load directly from the input while charging the battery. If the external source is cut off, it immediately switches to the LiPo battery via the ETA1036 boost circuit, providing a stable 5V output. This UPS-like function reduces battery drain and extends service life.
