yenlo Posted August 24, 2012 Share #1 Posted August 24, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Anyone got an idea about the pin-layout on the m8 accus? The m8 has 4 busy pins on the accu: Pin 1: temp sensor Pin 2: VCC Pin 4: ? Pin 6: GND How does the temp senor pin work and what´s the sense of pin 4 - maybe a way to read out the charge counter? Am i right, that the accu is a 1 cell LiIon accu (3,7v/750mAh)? Then a diy charger via - fe. maxim 1555 - should be quite simple. /chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

luigi bertolotti Posted August 24, 2012 Share #2 Posted August 24, 2012 As far as I remember, pin 4 simply isn't used during the charging : can be it has a role in the communication from battery to camera charging indicator, but I am not sure; a forum member did build a diy charger and used just 3 contact points : http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m8-forum/83090-finally-compact-battery-charger.html (in which you find also the answer about the "Temperature" pin) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
