Battery Voltage Measurement
The battery voltage measurement at Pin 10 (ADC-
converter) has a range of 0 V to 4 V, which means a
battery pack containing two cells can be connected
without a voltage divider.
4 V) a safety

switch off occurs. The fast charge cycle is terminated by
automatically changing to the trickle charge.
Precaution should be taken that under specified charge
current conditions, the final voltage at the input of the
converter, Pin 10, should not exceed the threshold voltage
level of the reset comparator, which is 5 V. When the
battery is removed, the input (Pin 10) is terminated across
the pulled-up resistance, R
B1,
to the value of 5 V-reset-
threshold. In this way, the start of a new charge sequence
is guaranteed when a battery is reinserted.
If the battery voltage exceeds the converter range of 4 V,
adjusting it by the external voltage divider resistance, R
B2
and R
B3
is recommended.
