The DS2710G+ is a single-cell NiMH (nickel metal hydride) charger in 10 pin TDFN package. The inputs to the DS2710 include USB voltage sources and 5V regulated adapter. Temperature, voltage and charge time are monitored to provide proper fast-charging control algorithms for single-cell NiMH or nickel cadmium (NiCd) batteries. It includes battery tests to detect defective or inappropriate cells such as alkaline primary batteries and typically suitable for in-system charging of low-current portable applications.
Switch mode topologies supported by hysteretic control technique
Pre-charges deeply depleted cells
Fast-charges NiMH with ΔV termination sensitivity of 2mV (typ)
Monitors voltage, temperature and time for safety and secondary termination
