Product details

The Maxim Integrated DS2712Z+ is a multi-chemistry battery charger controller designed to charge one or two cells in series. It supports NiMH, NiCd, and lithium-ion chemistries, making it a flexible fit for portable equipment, handheld instruments, and backup-battery applications where the cell type may vary across product variants or supply chains. Maximum supply voltage is 5.5 V.

The DS2712Z+ handles NiMH, NiCd, and Li-ion cells without a hardware change. That means a single charger design can serve products that switch chemistries between production runs — for example, a medical monitor that uses NiMH in one revision and Li-ion in the next. No separate charger IC per chemistry, no board spin. The 1-2 cell count range covers single-cell Li-ion and two-cell NiMH packs.

ROHS3 compliant, no lead or restricted-substance concerns for EU or global markets.

Frequently asked questions

Can the DS2712Z+ charge Li-ion batteries?

Yes. The DS2712Z+ supports multi-chemistry charging including Li-ion, as well as NiMH and NiCd. It handles one or two series cells, so a single Li-ion cell (3.6-4.2 V) is within its range.

What are the alternatives to the DS2712Z+?

Within the same Maxim portfolio, the DS2715 is a single-cell NiMH/NiCd charger that omits Li-ion support. For designs needing Li-ion only, the MAX1555 is a USB-compatible single-cell Li-ion charger. Neither is a drop-in pin-for-pin replacement — the DS2712Z+ is the multi-chemistry, 1-2 cell option.
