Code Examples
### Example 1: Arduino Battery Monitoring
In this example, we'll use an Arduino board to monitor the battery voltage and capacity. We'll use the Arduino's built-in analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to read the battery voltage and calculate the remaining capacity.
Hardware Requirements
Arduino Board (e.g., Arduino Uno)
3.7v 2500mah 18650 Li-Ion Battery
Breadboard and jumper wires
10k resistor (for voltage division)
Software Code
```c
const int batteryPin = A0; // Analog input pin for battery voltage
const int resistorValue = 10000; // 10k resistor value
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
int batteryVoltage = analogRead(batteryPin);
float voltageValue = (batteryVoltage 5.0) / 1024.0;
voltageValue = voltageValue (resistorValue / (resistorValue + resistorValue));
float batteryCapacity = (voltageValue - 3.0) / 0.1; // Approximate capacity calculation
Serial.print("Battery Voltage: ");
Serial.print(voltageValue);
Serial.print("V, Capacity: ");
Serial.print(batteryCapacity);
Serial.println("%");
delay(1000);
}
```
### Example 2: ESP32 Battery-Powered IoT Device
In this example, we'll use an ESP32 microcontroller to create a battery-powered IoT device that sends data to a cloud service. We'll use the ESP32's built-in Wi-Fi capability and a battery monitoring library to monitor the battery level.
Hardware Requirements
ESP32 Microcontroller
3.7v 2500mah 18650 Li-Ion Battery
Breadboard and jumper wires
Wi-Fi antenna (optional)
Software Code
```c
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <Battery.h>
const char ssid = "your_wifi_ssid";
const char password = "your_wifi_password";
WiFiClient client;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
// Initialize Wi-Fi
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(1000);
Serial.println("Connecting to Wi-Fi...");
}
Serial.println("Connected to Wi-Fi");
}
void loop() {
int batteryLevel = battery.getLevel();
Serial.print("Battery Level: ");
Serial.print(batteryLevel);
Serial.println("%");
// Send data to cloud service
client.setServer("your_cloud_service_url", 80);
client.print(String("GET /update?batteryLevel=") + String(batteryLevel) + " HTTP/1.1
");
client.print("Host: your_cloud_service_url
");
client.print("Connection: close
");
client.stop();
delay(30000); // Send data every 30 seconds
}
```
