My master thesis is focused on intorducing, analysing and describing the microprocessor controlled charger. The thesis is firstly describing and analysing the topic of accumulator cell charging for common technologies. Than there is detailed description of specific accumulator cell types (NiMH, NiCd and Li-ion) which is the microprocessor controled charger intend for. The next part of this thesis is showing the proposal of the charger. There is the block diagram, charger detailed schematics based on this block diagram. There is also list of the possible useful componets neccessary for charger assembling. All this is used for the final proposal of the chager itself. The main scope of this thesis is than the charger's microcontroler firmware decribed at the end of this thesis. Finaly confirmation of the charger proper proposal and assembly is the battery charging with the given basic parameters.

The deal of this thesis is study of the influence of LiOH added to electrolyte on Ni-Cd batteries. In theoretical part are analyzed properties of Ni-Cd accumulators in strong alkaline surroundings, especially with emphasis on structure changing of NiOH2 and NiOOH. In the second part of theoretical are also described methods for depositing Ni layers. In practical part electro-chemical spectrum and mass changing on Quartz crystal microbalance are measured by cyclic voltammetry method during charge/discharge process. The process of cation integration to the positive electrode structure in KOH, NaOH and CsOH electrolyte including related structural changes are observed.

Direction of the master's thesis is design and construct electronic device for testing available accumulators. Than there are in detail subscribe some metods of charging cells and their right usage to select type of cells. Also eventually problems that can become if the choice is false. Next part contains description of principles as several type accumulator works and their loading characteristic witch are important know for choose the best testing way. The most important knowledge is detection of stop point charging when accumulators are charged and following charging can be dangerous. Because there are more methods to detect this point so in thesis are overwrite. The most important part is design of tester. That is mapped to more segments witch communicating together. Controller part of intelligent tester contains ATmega128 microcontroller so there is present a passage of program code. Last section of master's thesis describe a physical consruction and explain division for smaller parts and hole process of tester function.

The goal of this thesis is describe properties accumulators used in medical industry and proposal automatic baterry charger for medical equipment. The first part of the master’s thesis describes the most commonly used types of electrochemical accumulator systems used in the medical industry. Further listed are the criteria for the identification of the accumulator charge status. The second part of the master’s thesis defines demands on automatic baterry charger and proposal factual network solution.

Deals with analysis and battery charging NiCd, NiMH, Li-Ion through a series of microcontroller from Atmel AVR controlled and powered from a PC via USB. Part is devoted to the characteristics of the USB interface and software capabilities to the enumeration AVR microcontroller. It also contains the basic characteristics of charged batteries, including the known methods of charging. The second half of the tehesis then provides a complete design and implementation of battery chargers, which consists of electronic parts, ATMEGA168 microcontroller program and the program for the PC. Presents circuit diagram of the charger and flowcharts of the main features of the program. The result of this thesis is functional battery charger above types. Attachments include a proposal DPS, a full circuit diagram and the charge and discharge characteristics of cells. The thesis is also referred to annex to the optical disk. Here it is mainly programs for microcontroller and PC. They are listed here as well as individual projects for AVR Studio, Borland Builder C + + and Eagle, which was created by chargers.

This thesis deals with design of microprocessor controlled battery charger with support of NiCd, NiMH and Li-Ion cells. The project focus is aimed within circuits design at algorithm of charge detection implemented into microprocessor. User interface is formed by PC application which communicates with charger via USB. PC connection allows recording of charging characteristics behaviour. The result of thesis is completely designed and created battery charger including microprocessor and PC application source codes.

In this thesis suggest the involvement of appropriate driver for mobile phone travel charger. The work is a treatise on the available accumulators, which can be used as a source for the proposed power converter.

Master’s thesis is deals with the effect of carbon additives on the positive electrode in the NiCd batteries. It examines whether the positive electrode material enrichment of carbon additives to achieve improved internal parameters of conductivity and better contact with the electrode materials in a discharged. Galvanostatic cycling and electro-chemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are used for evaluation of graphite aditives.

The ophthalmic trigeminal placode (opV) is the birth place of one cell type of sensory neurons contributing to the trigeminal ganglion. Signals from the neural tube induce placodal identity within the surface ectoderm. Specified opV placode cells then up-regulate neuron differentiation markers and migrate to the ganglion. Several molecular pathways have been shown to act in opV placode cell development. Despite this, signals that specify individual neurons from within the opV placode remain unknown. However, it is known that components of the Notch signaling pathway are expressed in the opV placode. I tested the role of Notch signaling in opV placode development by separately inhibiting and over-activating the pathway. Using DAPT, an inhibitor of gamma-secretase, I inhibited Notch signaling in 13-15 somite stage chick embryo heads. Attenuated Notch signaling caused increased neuronal differentiation of opV cells at 13-15 somites. I also observed an increase in migratory opV placode (Pax3+) cells in the mesenchyme and expression of neuronal marker Islet1 in the ectoderm. Further, I activated Notch signaling by misexpressing the Notch intracellular domain (NICD) by in ovo electroporation of 10-12 somite stage chick embryos. This resulted in Pax3+ targeted cells failing to differentiate and remain instead in the ectoderm. Thus, Notch/Delta signaling plays an important role in selecting ophthalmic trigeminal cells to differentiate and migrate to the trigeminal ganglion.
