Quiestions, questions, questions...... why can't manufacturers fully explain
example circuits in there datasheets.
I am trying to create a fast nicad charger using the MC33340 from ON semiconductor.
The datasheet has a nice circuit that looks like it will work the problem is there are some
holes that need to be filled in. Batterys being charged are 850mAH NiCD cells.
There are 6 cells in the pack for a total of 7.2 volts.
All question will refer to infomation that is in or not in the datasheet as the case may be.
Circuit in question is figure 14 on page 9 of the datacheet.
1) What does Vin need to be for the cells in question?
2) If a carge rate of C/2 is used how long should the timeout be set for?
3) When they say Vbatt is that discharged, fully charged....?
That is about all thanks in advance.
Datasheet can be found at:
