TP4056 1A Li-Ion Lithium Battery Charging Module with Current Protection – Type C

Description The TP4056 1A Li-Ion Lithium Battery Charging Module with Current Protection – Type C is a compact and efficient charging module designed for safely charging single-cell lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries, such as 18650 batteries. This module is built around the TP4056 charging IC, which provides reliable constant-current/constant-voltage (CC/CV) charging for lithium batteries. The integrated protection circuit ensures safe operation by protecting the battery against overcharge, over-discharge, and short-circuit conditions. The addition of a Type-C USB input connector makes this module more convenient and compatible with modern USB power sources, including mobile chargers, USB power adapters, and power banks. Because of its small size, high efficiency, and simple design, the TP4056 charging module is widely used in DIY electronics, battery-powered devices, robotics systems, Arduino projects, IoT systems, and portable power applications. �� Key Features Built-in TP4056 lithium battery charging IC Type-C USB input interface Charging current up to 1A Integrated battery protection circuit Protection against overcharge and over-discharge Short-circuit protection Constant current / constant voltage charging Dual LED indicators for charging status Compact PCB design Ideal for 18650 lithium batteries Easy to integrate in DIY electronics projects ⚙️ How the TP4056 Charging Module Works The TP4056 charging module follows a constant current / constant voltage charging method, which is the recommended charging technique for lithium-ion batteries. Charging Process Constant Current Stage Battery charges with a steady current up to 1A. Constant Voltage Stage When battery voltage reaches 4.2V, charging switches to constant voltage mode. Charge Termination Charging stops automatically when the current drops below the threshold. This charging method ensures maximum battery life and safety. The module also includes a protection IC and MOSFET, which help protect the battery from unsafe conditions. �� Technical Specifications Parameter Specification Product Name TP4056 Li-Ion Battery Charging Module Charging IC TP4056 Input Voltage 5V DC Input Interface USB Type-C Charging Current Up to 1A Charging Method CC/CV Full Charge Voltage 4.2V Protection Features Overcharge / Over-discharge / Short circuit Battery Type Single Cell Lithium-Ion / Li-Po Output B / B- Status Indicators Charging & Fully Charged LEDs Condition Brand New �� Pin Configuration The TP4056 module typically includes the following connections: Input Type-C USB Port – 5V charging input Battery Connection B – Battery Positive B- – Battery Negative Load Output OUT – Load Positive OUT- – Load Negative This allows both charging and powering a device simultaneously. �� Compatible Batteries The module supports single-cell lithium batteries, including: 18650 lithium-ion battery Li-Po battery packs 3.7V rechargeable lithium batteries Small lithium battery packs used in DIY projects ⚠️ It is designed only for single-cell batteries (3.7V). �� Applications The TP4056 Type-C charging module is widely used in: DIY power bank projects Portable electronics Arduino battery-powered projects Robotics battery packs IoT devices Solar-powered electronics Wireless sensor nodes Rechargeable LED lights Portable gadgets Embedded electronics systems Its small size and efficiency make it ideal for compact battery-powered designs. �� Ideal for Learning Electronics The TP4056 charging module is widely used in: Engineering college electronics labs Arduino learning kits Robotics training workshops STEM education programs DIY electronics tutorials Students use this module to learn concepts such as: Lithium battery charging Battery protection circuits Power management systems Portable power design ⚠️ Safety Guidelines Use only single-cell lithium batteries Ensure correct battery polarity Do not exceed 5V input voltage Avoid short circuits Use proper battery holders when possible Keep module in a ventilated enclosure Following these precautions ensures safe charging and longer battery life.
