▲Overview
The coin-type lithium manganese dioxide battery (CR battery) is a small, lightweight battery with an operating voltage of 3V and the ability to operate over a wide temperature range. It has a wide range of applications, both for powering devices such as wristwatches and electronic, calculators and can be used in all types of electronic devices mainly as memory and RTC backup.
▲Construction
▲Principle and Reactions
The coin-type lithium manganese dioxide battery uses manganese dioxide (MnO2) as its positive active material, lithium (Li) as its negative active material, and an organic electrolyte solution.
■ Battery reactions
Positive reaction:MnO2+Li++ e– → MnOOLi
Negative reaction: Li → Li+ + e–
Total reaction: MnO2+Li → MnOOLi
