Problems solved by technology

Reduced capacitance value may result in larger voltage ripple
When charging a battery with a switched capacitor converter, large voltage ripple may shorten battery life
In addition, when a dual-phase switched-capacitor converter is used to charge the battery, the unbalanced capacitance values ​​of the two flying capacitors may reduce the life of the battery

Abstract

The invention provides a capacitance calculation device, method and system. The method comprises the following steps: providing current flowing through a first flying capacitor in the switched capacitor power converter; measuring a first voltage at a first terminal of the first flying capacitor at a first voltage measurement time; measuring a second voltage at the first terminal of the first flying capacitor at a second voltage measurement time; and calculating a capacitance value of the first flying capacitor based on the first voltage, the second voltage, the first voltage measurement time, and the second voltage measurement time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to capacitance calculation devices, methods and systems, and in some specific embodiments, to capacitance calculation devices, methods and systems in switched capacitor power converters. Background technique [0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, various electronic devices (such as mobile phones, tablet computers, digital cameras, MP3 players and / or other similar electronic devices) have become popular. Each portable device may employ multiple rechargeable battery cells. These rechargeable battery cells can be connected in series or in parallel to form a rechargeable battery pack for storing electrical energy. [0003] A battery charger is used to restore the energy of the battery. The battery charger is controlled to supply voltage (eg, constant voltage charging mode) and current (eg, constant current charging mode) to the battery in order to recover energy from the battery. [0004] There are various ...
