About TL494 inverter output voltage is too high
The output voltage of the charger is set to 14.3 volts which is too high based on the battery's specification for float/standbye applications; it should be max 13.8V. This causes the (SLA) battery to become too warm which will probably reduce its life cycle.

6 FAQs about [TL494 inverter output voltage is too high]
Can tl494 control the output voltage?
During this Vout spike condition, TL494 shut down the FET and can’t control the output voltage. 1. Add energy absorption circuit (3*330uF+ 35W 100) could decrease the output spike, but the cement resistance is over 90 degree of centigrade.
Is tl494 a 'hot' voltage?
Thanks for reading this. First and most important, unless the circuit uses a base or gate drive transformer, TL494 and everything connected to it should be considered to be at AC mains "hot" voltage.
Does tl494 make a noise when connecting a 30 ohm load?
I'm building a DC-DC step-up (boost) converter using TL494. The schematic is attached The circuit can provide a few tens of mA without a problem, but when I connect a 30 Ohm load, it starts making audible noise (probably a mix of frequencies in the 100s of Hz range, not buzzing) and the voltage jumps to 15.5-16V.
Why does tl494 shut down the FET?
Based on end customer’s need, the motor need to operate under the condition of deceleration and over rated speed. Due to these conditions, motor will generate energy flows into pre-stage boost circuit, result in boost Vout spike. During this Vout spike condition, TL494 shut down the FET and can’t control the output voltage.
Is tl494 a buck converter?
The shown TL494 configuration produces symmetrical duty cycle as required for push-pull converter. It's not suited for buck converter application. configuration. Pin#9 & 10 of TL494 to GND and using either pin#8 or 9 for input pulse to IR2104 to avoid symmetric pulse problem in IR2110. The IRFP460 has an RdsOn of 0.25 ohm .
How do I know if my tl494 is saturating?
Measure the feedback voltage going back to the TL494 to verify the opto curreent is reponding to the changes in +OUT. Did you intend for the second opto LED to be on? If not, make sure the second opto LED is OFF. Force it to always be OFF because I believe it is always fully ON and this is saturating the TL494 feedback voltage.
