Abstract

In the device for controlling the recharging of a battery (2) from a current generator (1), one applies the process according to which:the value of the charging current is varied cyclically from an initial value,the temperature of the battery (2) is monitored so as to search for and measure therein a corresponding variation of the temperature, andthe value of the current is reduced if the temperature variation exceeds a target threshold (14).The invention applies to portable terminals.
