[0015] When starting the charging from the charging circuit 1, the maximum value of the charging voltage V B of the battery 2, the capacitor 3 via the diode 4 is stored for a time sufficient to detect the voltage change of the charging voltage V B . Here, the time constant determined by the values of the capacitor 3 and the resistor 6 is selected to be sufficiently large. Therefore, compared with the voltage change of the charging voltage V B, the change in potential of the capacitor 3 is slow, it can be said that keeping the maximum time sufficient to detect the voltage change of the charging voltage V B. The charging voltage V B is detected by the resistor 6 via the diode 8. The voltage vi 2 indicated by the resistor 6 is slightly level-shifted to the positive electrode side by the positive power supply V + and the resistor 7. Therefore, shown in FIG. 2 partial diagram (A), in the section T 1 is the charging voltage V B is gradually increased, as shown in FIG. 2 partial diagram (B), the voltage v i2 indicated by the resistor 6 It is always higher than the voltage v i1 indicated by the capacitor 3. Therefore, the output voltage v 0 of the comparator 9 becomes high level, and no battery charge completion signal is generated.

Next, when the charging of the battery further proceeds and the charging is almost completed, a phenomenon is seen in which the charging voltage V B decreases from the maximum by -ΔV in the section T 2 . At this time, the voltage v i1 indicated by capacitor 3 holds a substantially peak value of the charging voltage V B. On the other hand, the voltage v i2 indicated by the resistor 6, in order to change over the charging voltage V B, v i1 = v i2 and time t A appeared to become further over time, v i1> v i2
Becomes When v i1 > v i2 , the output voltage v of the comparator 9 becomes
0 becomes low level, and a battery charge completion signal is generated. This signal is used as a battery charge stop signal or a charge completion display.

Even if the voltage characteristic of the diode 4 changes due to a temperature change, the diode 8 changes in the same manner and functions as a temperature compensator to always accurately detect the completion of charging. Further, it is apparent that the above-described detection can be reliably performed by appropriately selecting the values of the resistors 6 and 7 regardless of the voltage value of −ΔV.
