The worst-case situation is when the device has transitioned from the the 2C rate. For example, a 500 mAh battery pack has a preferred fast charge current of 500 mA. Charging at Preconditioning mode to the Constant-Current mode. this rate provides the shortest charge cycle times In this situation, the battery charger has to dissipate the maximum power. A trade-off must be made between without degradation to the battery pack performance or life. the charge current, cost and thermal requirements of the charger. 6.1.1 COMPONENT SELECTION Selection of the external components in Figure 6-1 is crucial to the integrity and reliability of the charging system.
