Description
The U2403B is a monolithic, integrated-bipolar circuit which can be used in applications for time-controlled, constant-current charge. Selection of charge current versus timing is carried out by using the external circuit at Pins 2, 3 and 4. For high current requirement, an external transistor is recommended in series with the battery.
