Figure 1 gives the circuit for slow charging a NiCd battery pack with two AA-sized 1200-mAH cells. The battery is charged ...

The LT3954, a DC/DC converter designed to operate as a constant-current source and constant-voltage regulator with an internal 5A switch, is now available from Linear Technology.

Usually the current for the load is produced by some kind of constant current generator (CCG), preferably with thermal stabilization of the output current. It may also be necessary to measure the ...
