Maxell ER Series Lithium Thionyl Chloride Battery

Maxell ER Series Lithium Thionyl Chloride Battery a protective resistor is used to prevent the battery from being charged by large surges of current during diode failure. Please set the resistor so that the maximum current shown in the right table is not exceeded. For example, say an ER6 battery is used in sample circuit A in combination with a main power source 5 volts. Since the permitted charge current is 100?A and this battery’s voltage is 3.6V, let the resistor be R>= (5V-3.6V)/100?A=14k ohm, meaning that at least 14k ohm is required.

This battery is a high energy density sealed battery containing dangerous (Lithium) and deleterious (Thionyl Chloride) materials. For this reason, improper handling of the battery could lead to distortion, leakage*, overheating, explosion, fire, or generation of irritating/corrosive gases, causing bodily injury or equipment trouble.

Features

High 3.6-V voltage
The lithium thionyl chloride battery achieves a high voltage of 3.6 V.
Flat discharge characteristics
The change of internal resistance during discharge is minimal, allowing for flat discharge voltage until end of discharge life.
High energy density
Provides high energy density of 970m Wh/cm3 with discharge current of 100 µA (ER6 type).
Wide usable temperature range
Can be used over a wide temperature range : – 55 deg. C to +85 deg. C (please consult with Maxell, if using in temperatures of -40 deg. C or less).
Superior long-term reliability
The extremely low self-discharge, together with the use of a hermetic seal, allows for stable use over long periods.

Applications

OA Machines (Fax, Copiers, Printers)
Desktop PCs
PDAs
Medical Instruments, Cash Registers
FA Instruments (Measuring Instruments, Onboard Microcomputers, Sensors)
Electronic Meters (Gas, Water, Electricity)
ETC (Electronic Toll Collection System)
