    Abstract: The disclosure provides a battery device comprising a plurality of battery cells and at least one heat dissipation container. The heat dissipation container includes a frame and two thin films. The frame includes a perforation portion. The thin films are connected to the frame, and cover the perforation portion of the frame to form an enclosed space between the thin films and the frame. A liquid of water or aqueous solution is placed in the enclosed space. A bottom of each of the battery cells is adjacent to the corresponding thin film of the heat dissipation container. When the temperature of one of the battery cells is too high, the thin film of the heat dissipation container will damage to generate a broken hole. Then, the liquid will spray out of the heat dissipation container, and contact the battery cell to reduce the temperature of the battery cell.

    Abstract: A control module adapted to brush and brushless motors essentially applies a magnetic sensor to generate detecting signals in response to the status of the motor and deliver those signals to a control unit. The control unit further converts the signals into discrete diverting signals for driving the rotating direction, phase commands for controlling the motor phase, and a pulse width modulation (PWM) for adjusting the motor speed. A phase refining circuit thence receives those transformed signals and confirms merely a selected phase command attendant with the diverting and PWM signals for assisting a stable operation of the motor. Therefore, such control module not only applies to different types of motors but uses the separate transmissions of the signals responsible for designated instructions to attain facile controls and appropriate adjustments to the errors of the motor phase or motor velocity and efficiently decrease the occurrence of breaking the motor.

    Abstract: The invention provides a method for estimating a battery capacity of an electronic device. When a current or an average current of the battery is zero, a reference capacity is inquired from a look-up table based on a voltage of the battery. When a previously remaining capacity is greater than a reference capacity, a deduction process of a self-consumable capacity is performed one or more times for a previously recorded remaining capacity to obtain a new recorded remaining capacity smaller than the reference capacity. When the current of the battery is less than zero, a deduction process of a count capacity of discharging is performed one or more times for the previously recorded remaining capacity until a power of the battery is exhausted to obtain a first offset capacity. The first offset capacity is deducted from a previously recorded full charge capacity to estimate a new full charge capacity.
