Glossary of Terms
Term
Definition
Battery load resistance
The internal resistance of a battery is dependent on the
specific battery's size, chemical properties, age,
temperature and the discharge current. The units of
measure is ohms.
LiIon
A lithium-ion battery (sometimes LiIon battery or LIB) is
a member of a family of rechargeable battery types in
which lithium ions move from the negative electrode to
the positive electrode during discharge and back when
charging. LiIon batteries use an intercalated lithium
compound as one electrode material, compared to the
metallic lithium used in a non-rechargeable lithium
battery. The electrolyte, which allows for ionic
movement, and the two electrodes are the constituent
components of a lithium-ion cell.
mA
Milli-amps, or battery current units of measure
mAh
Milli-amp-hours, or battery capacity units of measure
Memory effect
Memory effect is an effect observed in nickel cadmium
and nickel–metal hydride rechargeable batteries that
causes them to hold less charge. It describes the
specific situation in which certain NiCd and NiMH
batteries gradually lose their maximum energy capacity if
they are repeatedly recharged after being only partially
discharged. The battery appears to "remember" the
smaller capacity. The source of the effect is changes in
the characteristics of the underused active materials of
the cell.
NiCd
The nickel–cadmium battery (NiCd battery or NiCad
battery) is a type of rechargeable battery using nickel
oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes.
The abbreviation Ni-Cd is derived from the chemical
symbols of nickel (Ni) and cadmium (Cd).
