DC10 E, DC20 E TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION 3-2-2 Progress of Charging The IC3201 starts a trickle charge under control of the SUB MI-COM (IC100). The trickle charge continues until the battery voltage reaches 6.17V. At the point when 6.17V is reached, the IC1800 starts a 808 mA quick charge. Then, the charge current decreases gradually with the progress of charging (because of an increase in impedance of the battery).
