Lithium polymer rechargeable batteries are energy dense yet safe

14 June 2006 Power Electronics / Power Management

Across the world, today's consumer electronics market is moving towards the development of portable miniature digital devices such as Bluetooth wireless headsets, MP3 players and other mobile electronic items. To meet the ever-growing demands for lighter, thinner and higher energy density batteries for high-tech portable devices and to promote new product development for the future, Danionics is providing a host of solutions as one of the world's top manufacturers in the LiP (lithium ion polymer, or more commonly called - lithium polymer) battery industry.

Established in 1994, Danionics is a world class provider of LiP battery solutions that optimise thickness, length as well as width, and supplies the highest possible energy density batteries to meet customised needs. The company has many years of experience in developing power solutions for international brands, creating innovative designs and manufacturing LiP batteries for different applications.

Due to their safe, lightweight characteristics and flexible form factor, LiP batteries are seen as the new wave in advanced battery solutions. In 2004, Danionics joined forces with GP Batteries to build a production plant in Shenzhen, China, to produce these leading-edge batteries.

Major features include: ultra thin compared with cylindrical type batteries; high flexibility design; high energy density; high uniformity and reliability; good cycling characteristics (min. 500 cycles); wide operation temperature range (charging 0 to 45°C, discharging -20 to 60°C); low self discharge; low internal resistance; good storage performance; safe even if the battery is misused.

Applications include Bluetooth devices (eg, headsets), wireless stereo headsets, MP3/MPEG4/PMP, PDSs, pocket PCs, tablet PCs, notebooks, smart displays, mobile phones, remote controls and other portable electronics.
