RAPID CHARGING TRANSFORMER
1. DESCRIPTION
The Travel Battery Charger is essentially a mains transformer
and rectifier. It provides DC power to operate an attached
DCS StarTAC as well as providing power to the phone’s
internal charger circuit. If no battery (or a dead battery) is
attached to the phone, the transformer can supply sufficient
current for full phone operation. The same Transformer is also
used to supply power to the E•P Rapid Desktop Charger.
The charger unit is designed to track 1.4 Volts above the
phone’s attached battery during charging, within a certain
range. Various mains plug styles can be attached to the main
transformer unit for different market requirements.
The charger has a length of cable with a plug termination
which fits into the accessory/charger socket at the base of
the DCS StarTAC.
