BATTERY CHARGING METHOD AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS SUPPORTING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18091930 titled 'BATTERY CHARGING METHOD AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS SUPPORTING SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a battery and a processor. The device is designed to charge the battery efficiently by maintaining a constant charging current.
- The device first checks if the charging voltage has reached a target voltage.
- If the target voltage is reached, the charging current is converted to a different value called the first charging current.
- The device then checks if the charging current has reached a target current.
- If the target current is reached, the charging current is converted to a second constant current that matches the target current.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in various electronic devices that require efficient battery charging, such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and wearable devices.
Problems Solved
- The device solves the problem of inefficient battery charging by maintaining a constant charging current and adjusting it based on voltage and current targets.
Benefits
- The technology ensures efficient and optimized battery charging, which can extend the battery life of electronic devices.
- It provides a reliable and consistent charging process, reducing the risk of overcharging or undercharging the battery.
- The device's ability to adjust the charging current based on voltage and current targets helps prevent damage to the battery and improves overall charging performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device includes a battery and a processor configured to, while maintaining a charging current at a first constant current, identify whether a charging voltage reaches a first target voltage, based on identifying that the charging voltage has reached the first target voltage, convert the charging current to a first charging current, identify whether the charging current reaches a first target current, and based on identifying that the charging current has reached the first target current, convert the charging current to a second constant current corresponding to the first target current.
