Thermally_based_NiCad_charger_with_low_imynedance_charging_source

Figure 8-19 shows a thermally based NiCad charger operated in the switching mode. The circuits of Figs. 8-15 and 8-18 both force the transistor to dissipate some power, and the resulting heat might be a problem in a small enclosure (typical of micropower circuits). The circuit of Fig. 8-19 relies on the source impedance of the wall transformer to limit current through Q1 and the battery pack. The source impedance can be set when specifying the transformer.
