100,000,000 iPod owners, and counting! A remarkable tribute to iPod music player from Apple - no question! I wonder how many know that iPod owners, like the iPod's battery works. Understandably, most people do not care as long as it works. But I'm interested and I'm sure there are others out there also know how their iPod battery can actually deliver power to their iPod like.

Most people would never understand the complexity of an iPod battery is still they would realize how manyIPod battery components can be found in her. For starters, the iPod battery of highly specialized components together, including the battery:

iPod battery connector
iPod Battery Backup
iPod battery charge and discharge FETs
iPod battery pack cell
iPod battery sense resistor
iPod battery primary and secondary protection ICs
iPod Battery Fuel Gauge IC
iPod battery thermistor
iPod Battery board

These components together allow your iPod battery so function that youlisten to music while the various activities of the day. Before we dive deep into each of these iPod battery components I want to make sure we understand that these components work together in an effort to provide electricity to produce the iPod.

iPods require energy into electricity to operate. iPods "draw electricity on demand from your iPod battery. But the iPod's battery is not a warehouse of electrical energy, but your iPodYour iPod's internal battery power "Factory", the electrical energy in a process as an electrochemical energy conversion, and then your iPod battery supplies electricity known to create on your iPod. The electrochemical energy conversion is a process of replenishment of electrons, and it is this electron supply that causes the chemical transformation to take place and create the electrical energy by-product. In order to understand electrochemical conversion, we see howElectricity is generated in the first place.

Electricity is a property of subatomic particles which couples to electromagnetic fields and causes attractive and repulsive forces between them. This repulsive force between the subatomic particles creates an electric current, the flow of electric charge transports energy from one atom to another. Electricity is measured in amperes, where 1 ampere the flow of 62,000,000,000,000,000,000 electrons per second!

In youriPod battery engineers have a constant state of imbalance, which causes a continuous stream of electrons designed. When the electrons between atoms (atoms move consist of particles exist as protons, neutrons and electrons) a current or an electric current is generated. But as the electric current is created to begin? This comes back to our electrochemical conversion. For the establishment of electrical energy (or a permanent state of imbalance, which causes a continuous stream ofElectrons) there must be an electrochemical system are the electrodes and the electrolyte accommodated in the battery. The electrons flow from one electrode to the other and the electron flow is conducted through an electrolyte. The iPod batteries, for example, an electrochemical system of the electrodes, consisting consist of carbon / graphite for the negative electrode and lithium cobaltite for the positive electrode. Between these electrodes is a electrolye that a highconductive solution, consisting of lithium hexafluorophosphate. The electrolyte solution is a chemical compound, if in a solvent (eg water) is a solution, the ionic conductor of electricity. Therefore, the electrochemical conversion!

Once the electrochemical conversion begins the balance of the specialized hardware of the iPod's battery components I mentioned above can be introduced in order to transfer work and the monitoring of the battery of the iPod and the iPod alone - all for theThe purpose of the supply of energy to your iPod.
