General Description
The MAX712/MAX713 fast-charge Nickel Metal Hydride
(NiMH) and Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) batteries from a DC
source at least 1.5V higher than the maximum battery
voltage. 1 to 16 series cells can be charged at rates up
to 4C. A voltage-slope detecting analog-to-digital convert-
er, timer, and temperature window comparator determine
charge completion. The MAX712/MAX713 are powered
by the DC source via an on-board +5V shunt regulator.
They draw a maximum of 5µA from the battery when not
charging. A low-side current-sense resistor allows the
battery charge current to be regulated while still
supplying power to the battery’s load.
The MAX712 terminates fast charge by detecting zero
voltage slope, while the MAX713 uses a negative
voltage-slope detection scheme. Both parts come in 16-
pin DIP and SO packages. An external power PNP tran-
sistor, blocking diode, three resistors, and three
capacitors are the only required external components.
For high-power charging requirements, the MAX712/
MAX713 can be configured as a switch-mode battery
charger that minimizes power dissipation. Two evaluation
kits are available: Order the MAX712EVKIT-DIP for quick
evaluation of the linear charger, and the MAX713EVKIT-
SO to evaluate the switch-mode charger.

MAX712/MAX713
Note 1:
The MAX712/MAX713 are powered from the V+ pin. Since V+ shunt regulates to +5V, R1 must be small enough to allow at
least 5mA of current into the V+ pin.
Note 2:
Offset voltage of THI and TLO comparators referred to TEMP.
Note 3:

A
is the A/D sampling interval (Table 3).
Note 4:
This specification can be violated when attempting to charge more or fewer cells than the number programmed. To ensure
proper voltage-slope fast-charge termination, the (maximum battery voltage) ÷ (number of cells programmed) must fall
within the A/D input range.

NAME
VLIMIT
BATT+
FUNCTION
Sets the maximum cell voltage. The battery terminal voltage (BATT+ - BATT-) will not exceed VLIMIT x
(number of cells). Do not allow VLIMIT to exceed 2.5V. Tie VLIMIT to VREF for normal operation.
Positive terminal of battery
PGM0 and PGM1 set the number of series cells to be charged. The number of cells can be set from
1 to 16 by connecting PGM0 and PGM1 to any of V+, REF, or BATT-, or by leaving the pin open (Table
2). For cell counts greater than 11, see the
Linear-Mode, High Series Cell Count
section. Charging more
or fewer cells than the number programmed may inhibit
∆V
fast-charge termination.
Trip point for the over-temperature comparator. If the voltage-on TEMP rises above THI, fast charge ends.
Trip point for the under-temperature comparator. If the MAX712/MAX713 power on with the voltage-on
TEMP less than TLO, fast charge is inhibited and will not start until TEMP rises above TLO.
Sense input for temperature-dependent voltage from thermistors.
Open-drain, fast-charge status output. While the MAX712/MAX713 fast charge the battery,
FASTCHG
sinks current. When charge ends and trickle charge begins,
FASTCHG
stops sinking current.
PGM2 and PGM3 set the maximum time allowed for fast charging. Timeouts from 33 minutes to 264
minutes can be set by connecting to any of V+, REF, or BATT-, or by leaving the pin open (Table 3).
PGM3 also sets the fast-charge to trickle-charge current ratio (Table 5).
Compensation input for constant current regulation loop
Negative terminal of battery
System ground. The resistor placed between BATT- and GND monitors the current into the battery.
Current sink for driving the external PNP current source
Shunt regulator. The voltage on V+ is regulated to +5V with respect to BATT-, and the shunt current
powers the MAX712/MAX713.
