Systems And Methods For Determining An Operating Mode Of A Battery

A system for determining an operating mode of a battery includes a voltage sensor configured to detect a present voltage across terminals of the battery. The system further includes a non-transitory memory configured to store previously detected voltages across the terminals of the battery, and a previous operating mode of the battery. The system further includes a processor coupled to the voltage sensor and the non-transitory memory and configured to determine the operating mode of the battery by comparing the present voltage across the terminals of the battery to the previously detected voltages of the battery and based on the previous operating mode of the battery.

3 Independent Claims

  • 1. A system for determining an operating mode of a battery, comprising: a voltage sensor configured to detect a present voltage across terminals of the battery; a non-transitory memory configured to store previously detected voltages across the terminals of the battery, and a previous operating mode of the battery; and a processor coupled to the voltage sensor and the non-transitory memory and configured to determine the operating mode of the battery by comparing the present voltage across the terminals of the battery to the previously detected voltages of the battery and based on the previous operating mode of the battery.

  • 13. A method for determining an operating mode of a battery, comprising: storing, in a non-transitory memory, previously detected voltages across terminals of the battery; storing, in the non-transitory memory, a previous operating mode of the battery; receiving, by a processor, a present voltage across the terminals of the battery; and determining, by the processor, the operating mode of the battery by comparing the present voltage across the terminals of the battery of the battery to the previously detected voltages of the battery and based on the previous operating mode of the battery.

  • 20. A method for determining an operating mode of a battery, comprising: detecting, by a voltage sensor, a present voltage across terminals of the battery; storing, in a non-transitory memory, previously detected voltages across the terminals of the battery; storing, in the non-transitory memory, trigger information; receiving, by a processor, the present voltage across the terminals of the battery; and determining, by the processor, the operating mode of the battery by comparing the present voltage across the terminals of the battery of the battery to the previously detected voltages of the battery and based on the trigger information.
