bq27010 end of charge detection

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ27010

Hello

The bq27010 datasheet indicates it senses the end of charge by sensing a low charging current (TAPER current), setting IMIN=1 and then setting NAC = LMD.  

If you are using the bq27010 as a gas gauge for a NiMH pack, and there is no TAPER charge, is there another way the bq27010 can sense an end of charge? 

And, the charger doesn't communicate with the battery pack. 

any ideas?
