The DS2711 and DS2712 are ideal for in-system or
stand-alone charging of 1 or 2 AA or AAA NiMH
"loose" cells. Temperature, voltage, and charge time
are monitored to provide proper fast charging control
algorithms for nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries.
Battery tests are included to detect defective or
inappropriate cells such as alkaline primary batteries.
The DS2711/DS2712 support series and parallel
topologies, with independent monitoring and control of
each cell. Charging of NiCd chemistry cells is also
supported.
