Todd Custer) Newsgroups: sci.electronics Subject: In Circuit Charging of NiCads Summary: In Circuit Charging of NiCads Message-ID: <344@sgfb.ssd.ray.com> Date: 17 Jan 91 21:43:36 GMT Sender: news@rayssd.ssd.ray.com Organization: Raytheon Company, Portsmouth RI Lines: 14 I want to make a hand held device powered by rechargable batteries. I also want to be able to use the device while the batteries are charging (like the old TI calculators). I have some circuits for NiCad chargers that seem very simple and straight forward. Are there any special requiremets for in circuit charging? Someone out there must have done this before. Any information will be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Todd Custer Raytheon Company Portsmouth RI
