TP4056 1A Li-ion lithium Battery Charging Module With Current Protection – Type C

When it comes to powering your electronics with lithium-ion batteries, safety and efficiency are key. The TP4056 1A Li-ion lithium Battery Charging Module – Type C is a compact, high-performance solution designed to charge 3.7V Li-ion cells reliably while ensuring essential battery protection.

At the heart of the module is the TP4056 charger IC, paired with the DW01 battery protection IC, which together offer multiple levels of protection. This includes overcharge protection, over-discharge protection, overcurrent protection, and short-circuit prevention—making it one of the safest options for lithium-ion charging. It also helps avoid reverse polarity connections, which can damage batteries or your circuits.

With a charging current of up to 1A, this module supports fast charging for batteries with a capacity of 1000mAh (1Ah) or more, making it suitable for powering a wide range of devices like wearables, DIY robotics, IoT nodes, LED projects, and portable sensors.

A helpful LED status indicator is built into the board—red for charging and green for fully charged—providing real-time feedback so you always know your battery’s status. The board is USB-powered via Type C or can be connected directly to a 5V power source.

Its compact size and plug-and-play usability make it perfect for beginners, hobbyists, and professionals alike. Just connect your battery, plug in power, and let the module handle the rest. There’s no need for complex configurations or coding.

If you’re looking for a low-cost, efficient, and safe charging module to integrate into your electronics or wearable projects, the TP4056 with Protection is an ideal choice. Invest in one today and ensure your lithium-ion batteries are charged smartly and safely every time.

Using the module:

1. Connect Type C cable for power, or 5V DC to pads marked IN+ and IN- on the left-hand side of the module
2. Connect cell to charge to B+/B- pads on the right-hand side of the module.
3. A load (something for the battery to power) can be connected to the OUT+/OUT- pads on the right-hand side
4. Important! Disconnect load when charging
5. The red LED indicates charging in progress, a green LED indicates charging has finished.
6. Never charge your battery at a rate greater than 1C.

We have 2 more such charging boards employing same TP4056 chip which are available at ChipTronicX.com and they are different according to the onboard USB port and current protection they provide,

1) TP4056 1A Li-ion lithium Battery Charging Module – Mini USB

2) TP4056 1A Li-Ion Battery Charging Board Micro USB with Current Protection

NOTE:

1. Ampere meter can only be connected to a 5v input end of the module.
2. It is better than the charging current is 37% of the battery capacity. If you charge the battery of 1000mAh, a current of 400mAh is enough.
3. The connection wire should not be too thick.
4. Make sure the connect point is good.
5. If the input voltage is too high, like 5.2v, the current will be less than 1000mA, it is normal. It is protection function, auto-subtract the charging current to avoid burn damage to the chip.
6. NO Reverse polarity.
