This is a simple Batteries charger for NiMH/NiCd.It Requires No Microcontroller or any Firmware.Linear Technology Corporation introduces the LTC4060, an autonomous 1- to
4-cell, 0.4A to 2A linear NiMH and NiCd battery charger. The LTC4060 includes
all the functions required for a battery charger circuit, operating without the
aid of a microcontroller or firmware. The design is simple and needs only three
passive components. The LTC4060 also eliminates the need for a sense resistor
and blocking diode, which increases efficiency and lowers the solution cost.
This IC is targeted at applications including portable medical equipment,
automotive diagnostic systems and industrial/telecom test devices.
