Abstract

See full text

Method and apparatus for measuring the voltage and state of charge of a secondary battery. The voltage and state of charge values are taken by a circuit every four (4) seconds by reading voltage, waiting two (2) seconds, reading current, waiting two (2) seconds, and repeating the voltage readings and the current readings. The circuit includes a 4-bit microprocessor, CMOS analog switches, and two operational amplifiers. The voltage and current readings are taken from dual-sloped converters, and the values determined by software algorithms in the microprocessor.
