MAX2003A - NiCd/NiMH Battery Fast-Charge Controllers

Download the MAX2003A datasheet PDF. This datasheet also covers the MAX2003 variant, as both devices belong to the same nicd/nimh battery fast-charge controllers family and are provided as variant models within a single manufacturer datasheet.

General Description

The MAX2003/MAX2003A are fast-charge battery chargers (with conditioning) for NiCd (nickel cadmium) or NiMH (nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable batteries.

Key Features

  • as the MAX2003 with an additional pulsed trickle-charge mode to prevent dendrite formation in NiMH batteries. Each can be configured as a switch-mode current regulator or as a gating controller for an external current source. Switch-mode current regulation provides efficient energy transfer, reducing power dissipation and the associated heating. Gating control of an external current source requires minimal components, saving space and cost. On-chip algorithms determine charge termination, so the.
