ABSTRACT:
A battery charging circuit controls between rapid charging and trickle charging used to charge a NiCd/NiMH battery. The circuit perceives when the rapid charging operation has completely charged the battery and thereafter converts the charging operation to a trickle charging in order to compensate for the charging loss of a battery due to the leakage discharge. The form of charging is controlled by restricting the maximum amount of current provided to the battery using current-mode pulse width modulation.
