[0023] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Figure 1 illustrates a block diagram depicting an environment 100 for the implementation of a system for regulating power supply to a battery installed in electronic equipment, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0025] Referring to Figure 1, in an embodiment, the system 112 may reside in a controller 110. In an embodiment, the environment 100 may include the battery 102, the electronic equipment 104, a charger 106, and a physical cable 108. The charger 106 may be configured to charge the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104. The electronic equipment 104 may include but is not limited to, a mobile device, a tablet PC, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a palmtop computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a server, a cloud server, a remote server, a communications device, a wireless telephone, or any other machine controllable through the wireless-network and capable of executing a set of instructions (sequential or otherwise) that specify actions to be taken by that machine. Further, the charger 106 may include but is not limited to a Universal Serial Bus Power Delivery (USB-PD) charger, a wireless charger, a portable power bank, a laptop charger, a multi-point charger, a fast or quick charger, and the like.
[0026] For example, in the electronic equipment 104, the battery 102 may be a critical component that provides the necessary power for the electronic equipment 104 to function. The battery 102 in the electronic equipment 104 may be typically represented by rechargeable lithium-ion (LI-ion) or Lithium-Polymer (Li-Po) cells due to high energy density, lightweight, and ability to be recharged multiple times. The battery 102 may be usually located inside the electronic equipment 104, often situated beneath the back cover or integrated directly into a chassis of the electronic equipment 104. In some devices with unibody designs, the battery 102 may not be accessible or replaceable by a user without disassembly. For instance, form factor of the battery 102 varies depending on the size of the electronic equipment 104, design of the electronic equipment 104, and the capacity requirements of the electronic equipment 104. The battery 102 may be typically a rectangular or square-shaped component that fits snugly within housing of the electronic equipment 104, maximizing available space while accommodating other internal components.
[0027] For example, the charger 106 may be adapted to charge the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 through the physical cable 108. In another example, the charger 106 may be adapted to charge the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 using wireless charging technology. The wireless charging technology typically relies on electromagnetic induction or resonance to transfer power from the charger 106 to the electronic equipment 104 without the need for the physical cable 108.
[0028] In an embodiment, the charger 106 may include the controller 110 adapted to enable the power supply to be transmitted between the charger 106 and the electronic equipment 104. The controller 110 may be configured to manage power distribution, battery charging, voltage regulation, and other power-related functions within electronic equipment 104, including the charger 106. The controller 110 may integrate multiple functions into a single chip, optimizing space and efficiency. The controller 110 may include, but is not limited to, an Integrated Circuit (IC) controller, a smart IC controller, a microchip, and the like. The controller 110 may include charge control models, thermal regulation, voltage, and current control monitoring, and safety mechanisms such as overcharge protection, over-discharge protection, and temperature sensing. The controller 110 may support various charging protocols and batteries, including lithium-ion batteries, lithium-polymer batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, and lead-acid batteries.
[0029] Now, in an embodiment, the controller 110 may include the system 112 configured to detect parameters of the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104. The parameters may include but are not limited to, a current value, a voltage value, a wattage value, and a temperature value. The current value indicates a flow of electric charge through the battery 102 at a given moment. The current value may be measured in amperes (A) and indicates the rate at which electrical energy may be drawn from or supplied to the battery 102. Further, the voltage value indicates an electrical potential difference between the positive and negative terminals of the battery 102. The voltage may be measured in volts (V) and represents the force that drives electric current through a circuit. The voltage value of the battery 102 fluctuates depending on the state of charge and load conditions. Furthermore, the wattage value may be a measure of the rate at which electrical energy may be consumed or produced by the battery 102. The wattage value may be calculated by multiplying the current value by the voltage value and may be expressed in watts (W). The wattage value provides insight into the power output or consumption of the battery 102 at any given time. In addition, the temperature value represents the thermal condition of the battery 102 and may be measured in degrees Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F). The temperature of the battery 102 may be a critical parameter as it affects battery performance, safety, and lifespan. The parameters may be essential for monitoring the performance, health, and safety of the battery 102 in the electronic equipment 104.
[0030] In an embodiment, the system 112 may be configured to determine a charging value of the battery 102 based on the detected parameters of the battery 102. The determined charging value of the battery 102 indicates a charging threshold for the battery 102 to attain during charging. For instance, the system 112 accurately assesses the condition of the battery 102 and adjusts the charging process accordingly to reach the determined charging value.
[0031] In an embodiment, the system 112 may be configured to regulate the power supply to the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 based on the determined charging value. The power supply indicates controlling an amount of power supplied to the battery and drawn from the battery during charging of the battery. The system 112 adjusts the power supply directed to the battery 102 in accordance with the determined charging value. The system 112 modulates the flow of electrical energy to ensure that the battery 102 receives the appropriate amount of power required to reach the charging level efficiently and safely. By precisely regulating the power supply, the system 112 mitigates the risk of overcharging, which may lead to battery degradation and reduced lifespan. Additionally, the battery 102 may be charged to a desired level, thereby maximizing performance and usability within the electronic equipment 104. The system 112 acts as a sophisticated controller, dynamically regulating the power supply to the battery based on the determined charging value.
[0032] Further, in an embodiment, the system 112 may be configured to determine a charging drop value of the battery 102 upon disconnecting the charger 106 from the electronic equipment 104 when the battery 102 may be fully charged. The charging drop value indicates decreasing the charging value of the battery 102 after disconnecting the charger 106. For example, the system 112 observes the parameters of the battery 102, such as voltage, current, temperature, and change in response to the disconnection of the charger 106 when the battery 102 reaches full charge capacity. Upon detecting that the battery 102 may be fully charged and the charger 106 has been disconnected, the system 112 carefully monitors the behaviour of the battery 102 during the initial period post-disconnection. The system 112 observes any decrease in the charging rate or any other relevant parameters that indicate a reduction in the charging process. Based on the observation, the system 112 calculates the charging drop value, which quantifies the degree of decrease in the charging rate of the battery 102 after the charger 106 is disconnected. The charging drop value serves as a reference point for adjusting future charging cycles to ensure optimal battery health and longevity.
[0033] In an embodiment, the charger 106 may be configured to charge the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 when the charging of the battery 102 reaches below the determined charging value. Further, the charger 106 may be configured to non-charge the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 when the battery 102 may be fully charged.
[0034] For example, when the charging of the battery 102 falls below the determined charging value, indicating that the battery 102 requires recharging, the charger 106 initiates the charging process. The charger 106 delivers an appropriate amount of power supply to the battery 102, gradually replenishing its charge level until it reaches the determined charging value. Conversely, when the battery 102 reaches full charge capacity, the charger 106 automatically ceases charging to prevent overcharging. Overcharging occurs when the battery 102 receives excess electrical energy beyond capacity, which may lead to overheating, reduced battery lifespan, and potential safety hazards. By discontinuing charging when the battery 102 may be fully charged, the charger 106 protects the battery 102 from such detrimental effects.
[0035] Figure 2 illustrates a block diagram 200 of the modules of the system 112, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The system 112 may include, but is not limited to, a processor 202, memory 204, modules 206, and a data 208. The modules 206 and the memory 204 may be coupled to the processor 202.

[0039] Further, the modules 206 can be implemented in hardware, instructions executed by a processing unit, or by a combination thereof.

The processing unit can be a general-purpose processor which executes instructions to cause the general-purpose processor to perform the required tasks or, the processing unit can be dedicated to performing the required functions. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the modules 206 may be machine-readable instructions (software) which, when executed by a processor/processing unit, perform any of the described functionalities.
[0040] In an embodiment, the modules 206 may include a detecting module 210, a determining module 212, and a regulating module 214. The detecting module 210, the determining module 212, and the regulating module 214 may be in communication with each other. A database serves, amongst other things, as a repository for storing the parameters. In an embodiment, the data 208 serves, amongst other things, as a repository for storing data processed, received, and generated by one or more of the modules 206.
[0041] Referring to Figure 1, and Figure 2, the detecting module 210 may be adapted to detect the parameters of the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 whenever the battery 102 may be connected to the charger 106. The system 112 enables the power supply to be transmitted between the charger 106 and the electronic equipment 104. The charger 106 may be adapted to charge the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104.
[0042] In an embodiment, the determining module 212 may be adapted to determine the charging value of the battery 102 based on the detection of the battery 102. The determined charging value of the battery 102 indicates a charging threshold for the battery 102 to attain during charging.
[0043] Further, in an embodiment, the regulating module 214 may be adapted to regulate the power supply to the battery 102 installed in the electronic equipment 104 based on the determined charging value. The power supply indicates controlling an amount of power supplied to the battery 102 and drawn from the battery 102 during charging of the battery 102.
[0044] Furthermore, in an embodiment, the determining module 212 may be adapted to determine the charging drop value of the battery 102 upon disconnecting the charger 106 from the electronic equipment 104 when the battery 102 may be fully charged. The charging drop value indicates a decrease in a charging status of the battery 102 after disconnecting the charger 106.
