Hi,
This is my first post in here so I hope not to annoy you too much with my small request for some help.
I am looking to design a small circuit to sit between a Li-Po battery (14.8V) and the rest of the modules (Video Processor, TFT Panel, etc) which require regulated 12V@2A.
It also needs to have a low voltage output that can fire an LED/Buzzer before the over discharge circuitry within the Li-Po battery cuts everything off.
On my journey through Google I came across a MAX932 which could be used as a window comparator, then maybe use it to fire up Linear 12V reg (obviously rated around 3A)?? Just wanted to run it by you guys in here to see if this might be a decent way of doing it or whether or not there are pitfalls I should be aware of by going down this route.
Alternatively if there are other better options I would dearly love to hear them (cheapest of course).
Thanks in advance.
