CONTROLLED TRANSITION TO REGULATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18465195 titled 'CONTROLLED TRANSITION TO REGULATION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for regulating battery current using a regulating circuit, an operational transconductance amplifier, and a current source. The regulating circuit receives a battery feedback parameter and produces a first output current at an output terminal based on the battery feedback parameter and a battery current regulation voltage. The operational transconductance amplifier also produces a first output current at the output terminal based on the battery feedback parameter and a reference voltage.
- The method involves receiving a battery feedback parameter and using it to regulate battery current.
- An operational transconductance amplifier is used to produce a first output current at the output terminal.
- A current source is used to produce a second current at the output terminal.
- The output currents are based on the battery feedback parameter and either a battery current regulation voltage or a reference voltage.

Original Abstract Submitted
A method includes receiving, by a regulating circuit, a battery feedback parameter and producing, by an operational transconductance amplifier, a first output current at an output terminal based on the battery feedback parameter and a battery current regulation voltage. The method also includes producing, by a current source, a second current at the output terminal based on the battery feedback parameter and a reference voltage.
