Batteries are increasingly used in everyday life. Almost all new applications, which are being developed, are looking for a stand-alone energy source. For economic reasons, therefore, the use of rechargeable batteries is increasing. This thesis describes the design and development of a digital system, which will measure and display the capacity of the tested battery and allow the user to know the strength and quality of that battery in order to replace it. The work presents the main characteristics of the types of batteries, which employ the present work. A description of the operation of the batteries is made, a comparison for each type and how each battery behaves when used. The problems arising from this use are also presented. This is followed by a technical description of the device implemented to improve the use of batteries and to compare it with other methods. After testing with 3 different types of rechargeable batteries, the results needed to make the right decision regarding the good condition of the battery are presented.
