Abstract

See full text

A method of backing up data from an electronic system is disclosed. The method may include detecting an operating mode of the battery subsystem that is a maintenance discharge cycle operating mode and in response, calculating, using a first algorithm, the available battery capacity relative to a minimum battery capacity. The method may also include detecting an operating mode of the battery subsystem that is a normal operating mode and in response, calculating, using a second algorithm, the available battery capacity relative to a maximum battery capacity. The method may also include comparing the available battery capacity to a battery capacity sufficient to complete a backup operation, detecting a backup trigger condition and in response to the backup trigger condition and the available battery capacity being sufficient to complete a backup operation, backing up, data from the electronic system.
