Analog Devices (MAX713CSE+) Battery Charger for 16 Cells of NiCd,

Battery Charger for 16 Cells of NiCd, NiMH battery, 5.5V input, 17V / 2A charge,SOIC-16Product OverviewThe MAX713CSE+ is a NiCd/NiMH battery Fast-charge Controller. The MAX713fast-charge nickel metal hydride (NiMH) and nickel cadmium (NiCd) batteries froma DC source at least 1.5V higher than the maximum battery voltage. 1 to 16series cells can be charged at rates up to 4C. A voltage-slope detectinganalogue-to-digital converter, timer and temperature window comparator determinecharge completion. The MAX713 is powered by the DC source via an on-board +5Vshunt regulator. They draw a maximum of 5µA from the battery when not charging.A low-side current-sense resistor allows the battery charge current to beregulated while still supplying power to the battery's load.Fast-charge NiMH or NiCd batteriesVoltage slope, temperature and timer fast-charge cut-offCharge 1 to 16 series cellsSupply battery's load while charging (linear mode)Fast charge from C/4 to 4C rateC/16 Trickle-charge rateAutomatically switch from fast to trickle chargeLinear mode power control5µA Maximum drain on battery when not charging5V Shunt regulator powers external logicApplicationsComputers & Computer Peripherals, Consumer Electronics, Portable DevicesProduct InformationBattery Type: NiCd, NiMHInput Voltage: 5.5VBattery Charge Voltage: 17VCharge Current Max: 2ABattery IC Case Style: SOICNo. of Pins: 16PinsNo. of Series Cells: 16Operating Temperature Min: 0°COperating Temperature Max: 70°CMSL: MSL 1 - Unlimited
