Lithium Batteries CR2412

Key Specifications

• Nominal voltage: 3.0 V.

• Typical nominal capacity: ≈ 100 mAh.

• Dimensions: Diameter ~ 24.5 mm, Height ~ 1.2 mm.

• Weight: about 2.0 g.

• Chemistry: Lithium-manganese dioxide (Li/MnO₂) primary (non-rechargeable) coin cell.

• Operating temperature range: about -30 °C to +85 °C for the standard version.

• Continuous standard drain: ~ 0.2 mA (in the datasheet for Panasonic).

 Applications

• Ultra-thin form (only ~1.2 mm thick) makes it suitable for very slim devices where space is limited.

• Stable 3 V output over a long shelf-life typical of lithium coin cells.

• Good for low-drain applications such as: remote key-fobs, card remotes, memory backup (e.g., in electronics for BIOS/RTC), security price tags, smart transmitters.

• Because it’s non-rechargeable, it’s meant for “insert and forget” type usage rather than frequent discharge/charge cycles.
