The J1722 which is your level 1 and level 2 charger is a fancy extension cord with switch controlled by the vehicle. It sends AC power into the vehicles built in charger.
The CHAdeMO makes DC and sends the appropriate high voltage DC power to the car and it would seem that it sends it pretty much straight to the battery. The vehicle controls the CHAdeMO unit.
