FEATURES
® Fast charge of nickel cadmium or nickel-metal hydride batteries ® Direct LED output displays charge status ® Fast-charge termination by -∆V, maximum voltage, maximum temperature, and maximum time ® Internal band-gap voltage reference ® Optional top-off charge ® Selectable pulse trickle charge rates ® Low-power mode ® 8-pin 300-mil DIP or 150-mil SOIC Pin Connections GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Controlling a current-limited or constant-current supply allows the bq2002E/G to be the basis for a costeffective stand-alone or system-integrated charger. Fast charge is initiated on application of the charging supply or battery replacement. Pin Names Fast charge is terminated by any of the following: n Peak voltage detection (PVD) n Negative delta voltage (-∆V) n Maximum voltage n Maximum temperature n Maximum time After fast charge, the bq2002E/G optionally tops-off and pulse-trickles the battery per the pre-configured limits. Fast charge may be inhibited using the INH pin. The bq2002E/G may also be placed in low-standby-power mode to reduce system power consumption.
