The MAX712/MAX713 are simple to use. A complete
linear-mode fast-charge circuit can be designed in a
few easy steps. A linear-mode design uses the fewest
components and supplies a load while charging.
1) Follow the battery manufacturer’s recommendations
2) Decide on a charge rate (Tables 3 and 5). The slow-
Depending on the battery, charging efficiency can be
as low as 80%, so a C/3 fast charge could take 3 hours
and 45 minutes. This reflects the efficiency with which
electrical energy is converted to chemical energy within
the battery, and is not the same as the power-
conversion efficiency of the MAX712/MAX713.
3) Decide on the number of cells to be charged (Table 2).

Table 1 provides general guidelines.
est fast-charge rate for the MAX712/MAX713 is C/4,
because the maximum fast-charge timeout period is
264 minutes. A C/3 rate charges the battery in about
three hours. The current in mA required to charge at
this rate is calculated as follows:

to charge more or fewer cells than the number pro-
grammed can disable the voltage-slope fast-charge
termination circuitry. The internal ADC’s input volt-
age range is limited to between 1.4V and 1.9V (see
the Electrical Characteristics), and is equal to the
voltage across the battery divided by the number of

cuitry can be disabled.
