MAX704CSA+

The MAX704CSA+ is designed as one kind of NiCd/NiMH battery fast-charge controller device that can be used in battery-powered equipment and portable consumer products applications. And this device terminates fast charge by detecting zero voltage slope and can be configured as a switch-mode battery charger that minimizes power dissipation.

Features of the MAX704CSA+ are:(1)Fast Charge NiMH or NiCd Batteries; (2)Voltage Slope, Temperature, and Timer Fast-Charge Cutoff; (3)Charge 1 to 16 Series Cells; (4)Supply Battery's Load while Charging (Linear Mode); (5)Fast Charge from C/4 to 4C Rate; (6)C/16 Trickle-Charge Rate; (7)Automatically Switch from Fast to Trickle Charge; (8)Linear or Switch-Mode Power Control; (9)5A Max Drain on Battery when Not Charging; (10)5V Shunt Regulator Powers External Logic.

The absolute maximum ratings of the MAX704CSA+ can be summarized as:(1)V+ to BATT-: -0.3V to +7V;(2)BATT- to GND: ±1 V;(3)DRV to GND: -0.3V to +20V;(4)All Other Pins to GND: -0.3V, (V+ + 0.3V);(5)V+ Current: 100 mA;(6)Storage Temperature Range: -65°C to +150°C;(7)Lead Temperature (soldering, 10sec): +300°C.
