The market is flooded with cheap mobile charger circuit. Some of you may be looking
for this type of charger circuit diagram and components list.
These mobile chargers uses only few parts, very simple design. But there’s a drawback
too, they got damaged easily.
Some of my friends keeps asking how to repair mobile charger circuit, so I’ve decided to
do a little reverse engineering of those chargers.

Unfortunately every charger circuit is not same, some of them contains few extra
capacitors or resistors.

But even though, you can get a clear overview of the mobile charger circuit from the

above diagram.
The design is quite straight forward, built on a paper phenolic PCB, could be easily
repaired.
1. Q1 – 13001 transistor
2. D1 – 1N4007 diode
4. D3 – 1N4148 diode
As I’ve said before, this type of 13001 transistor charger circuit may vary in design
and part number. But the basic circuit is same, few of them have a little LED as indicator.

If the transformer is broken, you can use the transformer from other broken charger of
similar type.
1. The first stage is a half wave rectifier, made with D1, R1 and C1. It rectifies and filters the AC
input to high voltage DC. So, the voltage between point A and poing B is approximately 170
volt for 120V AC input and 311 volt for 220 volt AC input.
2. The Second step is a self oscillating(ringing choke converter, RCC) flyback oscillator, consisted

of all the parts shown inside the red box and the primary+auxiliary winding of the transformer.
3. So how the flyback oscillator oscillates? When the AC power is connected, base of the transistor

4. But at the same time, an opposite(but low) voltage starts rising across the auxiliary winding of
the transformer. This opposite voltage starts charging the capacitor C3 negatively, much faster

than charging it through R2, thus ultimately blocks current flow through primary winding.

5. As there’s no more current flow in the auxilary winding, C3 starts discharging through R3 and
the current through R2 again starts opening the base of transistor Q1.
6. This process repeats itself again and again very fast. May be around 10,000 to 50,000 times a
second, depending on various parameters. So ultimately we got the circuit oscillating.
7. As the circuit is oscillating, the energy stored in the primary winding is dumped in the
secondary winding as well, when the transistor is in off state.
8. The Rectifier 2 stage is responsible for rectifying and filtering the induced current and voltage
on the secondary. The rectified and smoothed voltage apears between poing C and D. Which
could be as high as 8-9 volt under no load. But very quickly drops when a load is connected.
9. The resistance R4 ensures a little current flow, thus prevents the capacitor from being over
charged.
As there’s no feedback mechanism between low voltage side and the oscillator, the
voltage drops between point C and D when a load is connected.
Conclusion
Well, that’s certainly not the easiest explanation, but I think simple enough to
understand what’s happening inside the mobile charger circuit.
If you have any question or suggestion, please feel free to ask through the comments.

Can you please explain this in deep. Like how resistancevalues are calculted and how turns
ratio is calculated for this circuit and orher mobile charger circuit …and why non polarized
capacitor is used etc etc..
Thanks

wattage=voltage×current.please reply.

Hi Mr.Arnab,
You have not shown the phasing of the ouput winding or described use of D2, D3 and C2.
I think they make up a crude voltage feedback network. The dot should be on the bottom of
the secondary under these conditions. D3 rectifies this voltage and if +ve output increases
on the output, a more -ve voltage is generated across C2 which in turn reduces drive to Q1
through D2.
I would also like added a comment that working directly with mains voltages is very
dangerous and the transformer particularly could suffer insulation breakdown in use possibly
putting mains voltages on the output whilst in use.

The current through the Q1 is not limited at all: the transistor can damage.Also when the
charger is starting, the hight current pulses can produce high voltage spikes (thanks to a
leakage inductance). To avoid it, you must insert current sensor (from emitter to ground)
and current limitter.Like this: http://www.embed.com.ua/wp-
