3. TECHNICAL BRIEF
3.4.10 Charger control
A programmable charger in AB2000 is used for battery charging. It is possible to set limits for the
output voltage at CHSENSE- and the output current from DCIO via the sense resistor to CHSENSE-.
The voltage at CHSENSE- and the current feed to CHSENSE- cannot be measured directly by the
GPADC. Instead, the two measuring amplifiers translate these inputs to a voltage proportional to the
input and within the range of the GPADC. Figure shows the schematic of charging control part.
