    Abstract: In one embodiment, a battery monitoring unit for monitoring a battery pack may include a first power MOSFET transistor with at least three pads, and a printed-circuit board with at least three copper layers. The first copper layer may have vias that connect electrical components amounted on the printed-circuit board. The second copper layer may have a first area where copper material is excluded. The first power MOSFET transistor is embedded (1) in the first area of the second copper layer where the copper material is excluded, and (2) between the first copper layer and the third copper layer. The two pads of the power MOSFET may be plated with copper. The first power MOSFET transistor may be connected to the one or more first electrical components through the at least three pads plated with copper.

    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include (i) detecting a battery condition of a wearable battery-operated device that indicates a threat to a battery's health and (ii) in response to detecting the battery condition, performing a battery-protection action by initiating a reverse power flow across a bidirectional connection from the wearable battery-operated device to a portable charging case that is designed to charge the wearable battery-operated device. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
