The 10K preset associated with the above IC is set as per the battery voltage which needs to be charged. Thus the output sequence corresponds to the instantaneous voltage level at the "signal input" pin out of the IC. The IC has ten linearly incrementing output which sequence one after the other in response to a rising potential fed at its pin#5. The circuit functioning may be understood with the following points: The IC LM3915 which is a Dot/Bar voltage display chip forms the main section of the circuit. The following circuit will allow you to charge any battery right from 1.5V to 24V simply by setting up a given preset.
