Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce influence of input voltage fluctuation without requiring a large auxiliary charge resistor in a secondary battery charging circuit by detecting the voltage of a secondary battery and switching the output from the charging circuit based on the detected secondary battery voltage. CONSTITUTION:When a secondary battery is charged, voltage of the secondary battery 2 is detected through the voltage detection switch circuit 15 in a voltage detecting means 4 and when it is lower than a set value, the base of a transistor(Tr)16 goes low thus preventing turn ON thereof. The secondary battery 2 is charged with a large quick charge power fed from a three terminal regulator 1. When the secondary battery 2 is charged above a set voltage, the voltage detection switch circuit 15 feeds base current to the Tr16, thus turning the Tr16 ON and bypassing current flowing through Tr9 to a resistor 17. Consequently, switching is made to auxiliary charging with low output, and the three terminal regulator 1 charges the secondary battery 2 with low power.
