Abstract :
An ONU (optical network unit) backup power supply has been developed that uses intermittent charging circuitry and high-energy-density Ni-MH (nickel metal-hydride) batteries. The intermittent charging is controlled based on the open-circuit voltage, which has a strong relationship with the battery charge near the fully charged condition. This charging method uses simple circuitry, its operation was confirmed by charge testing. A power supply using this circuit and Ni-MH batteries is about 45% smaller than one using conventional charging circuitry and Ni-Cd (nickel-cadmium) batteries
