Lithium coin cells
Coin Cells
As the name implies, small circular cells used in many
electronic applications.
Main applications: Memory back up and small electronic
devices.
Technical - Lithium Managanese Dioxide - IEC Code CR
This is the main 3 volt technology. Although more expensive than alkaline it offers the advantages of:
- Higher voltage per cell (3V)
- Longer shelf life
- Good low temperature performance (down to -40C)
- In many instances, better pulse and high rate performance
The main features are:
- Primary: non-rechargeable
- Nominal voltage 3V
- Maximum open circuit voltage 3.7V
- Energy Density 450 Wh/kg 650 Wh/L
- Temperature range -40°C to 65°C
