Batteries

A hand held point-of-sale instrument needs a lightweight user-replaceable power solution.

The Problem:
A hand held point-of-sale instrument needs a lightweight user-replaceable power solution.

The Solution:
An ultrasonically welded Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack designed to snap on to the back of the device.

Six NiMH cells best suited the power requirements of the application and were encapsulated in a plastic enclosure, then ultrasonically welded. The enclosure was designed to snap on to the back of the device, allowing the end user easy access to replacing the pack. This also allowed for a second battery pack to be sold with the unit or as an after market item. By placing the battery power external to the device, board real estate is saved, correct polarization is assured and the possibility of failures due to wiring or connectorization are virtually eliminated. Aved Electronics can help you design a "snap-on" battery powered solution for your application with unlimited possibilities in configuration, shape, size, chemistry, voltage and capacity.
