Texas Instruments BQ2000T
The bq2000T is a programmable, monolithic IC for fast-charge management of nickel cadmium (NiCd), nickel metal-hydride (NiMH), or lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries in single- or multi-chemistry applications. The bq2000T chooses the proper battery chemistry (either nickel or lithium) and proceeds with the optimal charging and termination algorithms. This process eliminates undesirable, undercharged, or overcharged conditions, and allows accurate and safe termination of fast charge.FEATURES
1● Safe Management of Fast Charge for NiCd, NiMH, or Li-Ion Battery Packs
● High-Frequency Switching Controller for Efficient and Simple Charger Design
● Pre-Charge Qualification for Detecting Shorted, Damaged, or Overheated Cells
● Fast-Charge Termination by ΔT/Δt for Nickel Chemistries, Minimum Current for Li-Ion Chemistries, Maximum Temperature, and Maximum Charge Time
● Selectable Top-Off Mode for Achieving Maximum Capacity in NiMH Batteries
● Programmable Trickle-Charge Mode for Reviving Deeply Discharged Batteries and for Postcharge Maintenance
● Built-in Battery Removal and Insertion Detection
● Sleep Mode for Low Power Consumption

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Depending on the chemistry, the bq2000T provides a number of charge termination criteria:● Rate of temperature rise (ΔT/Δt) (for NiCd and NiMH)
● Minimum...
