Abstract :
This paper presents a project entitled "Development of a battery charger for racing car". The purpose of this study is to build up a automatic detection of Ni-Cd and Ni-MH battery and provide a safe procedure to charge them in relative short period such as 0.5-1 hr. This paper will give simple introduction to these two kinds of battery, with discharge scheme and high current charging scheme followed. Safety precautions and will also be discussed.
