Constant voltage charging is a method of charging at a constant voltage to prevent overcharging. The charging current is initially high then gradually decreases. A constant charging method characterized by high initial current when the voltage is low, then decreasing current as the voltage gradually increases.
During the constant voltage mode, the charging current starts to decrease. When the charging current drops to a predefined minimum current value (e.g., 0.05 C), the charging process concludes, indicating the battery is fully charged (e.g., battery state of charge is 100%).
Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating. Constant current/constant voltage is a combination of the above two methods. The charger limits the amount of current to a pre-set level until the battery reaches a pre-set voltage level.
Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating. Charge times are relatively long with the disadvantage that the battery may overheat if it is over-charged, leading to premature battery replacement. This method is suitable for Ni-MH type of batteries.
There are three common methods of charging a battery: constant voltage, constant current and a combination of constant voltage/constant current with or without a smart charging circuit. Constant voltage allows the full current of the charger to flow into the battery until the power supply reaches its pre-set voltage.

Introduction. Various resources state that the optimal method of charging a li-ion cell -- such as one found in a mobile phone -- is to charge at a constant current (usually <1C) until a certain voltage threshold is reached, then switch to charging at a constant voltage until the charging current drops to about 0.1C, at which point the battery is fully charged.
