9V Battery Voltage Monitor Circuit


This is a circuit that can be use for monitoring the voltage of battery. This is the figure of the circuit;


Nine voltage batteries are used in a wide variety of electronic devices.  But, you often don’t know when it is time to change the battery until the device stops operating.  The hobby circuit below provides a visual indication when the battery needs to be replaced.  It uses a neat IC from Linear Technology, which contains a very low power voltage reference and a voltage comparator.  The circuit is designed to turn on a LED indicator light when the battery voltage drops below 7.2 volts.
