Abstract
The present invention provides a charging apparatus, a charging control circuit, and a charging control method. The charging apparatus includes a power conversion circuit for generating a DC output voltage and charging a battery by a DC output current, and a charging control circuit for controlling the power conversion circuit. When the DC output voltage or the battery voltage rises to a first reference threshold voltage, the DC output current is adjusted downward by a current down step, and when the DC output voltage or the battery voltage falls to a second reference threshold voltage, the DC output current is adjusted upward by a current up step.
