IC Controlled
Emergency Light
with Charger

he circuit shown here is that of


the IC controlled emergency
light. Its main
features are: automatic
switching-on of the light
on mains failure and battery charger with overcharge protection.
When mains is absent, relay RL2 is in deenergised state, feeding
battery supply to inverter section via its N/
C contacts and switch
S1. The inverter section
comprises IC2 (NE555)
which is used in stable
mode to produce sharp
pulses at the rate of 50
Hz for driving the
MOSFETs. The output of
IC3 is fed to gate of
MOSFET (T4) directly
while it is applied to
MOSFET (T3) gate after
inversion by transistor
T2. Thus the power amplifier built around
MOSFETs T3 and T4
functions in push-pull
mode.
The output across
secondary of transformer
X2 can easily drive a
230-volt, 20-watt fluorescent tube. In case light
is not required to be on
during mains failure,
simply flip switch S1 to
off position.

Battery overcharge preventer circuit


is built around IC1 (LM308). Its non-

inverting pin is held at a reference voltage of approximately 6.9 volts which is


obtained using diode D5 (1N4148) and
6.2-volt zener D6. The inverting pin of
IC1 is connected to the positive terminal of battery. Thus when mains
supply is present, IC1 comparator output is high, unless battery voltage exceeds 6.9 volts. So transistor T1 is normally forward biased, which energises
relay RL1. In this state the battery remains on charge via N/O contacts of
relay RL1 and current limiting resistor
R2. When battery voltage exceeds 6.9
volts (overcharged condition), IC1 output goes low and relay RL1 gets deenergised, and thus stops further charging of battery.
MOSFETs T3 and T4 may be
mounted on suitable heat sinks.
