Hi,

I would like to ask you for advise and correction in case it is wrong. I wanted to change this power supply by usb which is working rightly in my device

to one using lion/lipo batteries.

So I did this schematic

using
http://www.micrel.com/_PDF/mic5305.pdf and
http://datasheet.octopart.com/MCP73832T-2ACI-OT-Microchip-datasheet-16123459.pdf

What do you think about it? Will it protect enough my batteries? Do you see any mistake or something could be improved?

Thank you!

Why is your schematic an awful looking negative image?? admin: please be polite

The 3.3V regulator will stop working long before the battery voltage drops to 3.2V.

What will prevent the battery voltage from being discharged too low? You need a protection circuit that disconnects the load on the battery when its voltage drops below 3.2V.

Well, sorry for the negative image, it is just a printscreen of my current design.

I changed my schematic again to this one

This schematic is divided in 2 parts. From LiPo to right is based in my current schema powered only by USB 5V. And LiPo to left is what i added based on this design

So, having this all together, do you think is there any error? Should I put any component between these two schematics? I am specially worried about when the battery is full and the voltage drops..

Thank you
