Abstract: Enhanced battery pack controllers and control methods are disclosed. One illustrative battery pack controller includes: a monitor circuit that couples to a battery pack load terminal to detect when a voltage of the battery pack load terminal indicates a load condition; a fault detection circuit that couples to a current path through an array of one or more battery cells to detect when a current indicates a fault condition; a switch control circuit that selectively de-asserts a discharge transistor control pin, asserts the discharge transistor control pin, and ramps a voltage or current of the discharge transistor control pin in an open loop fashion for at least 10 ms; and a status detection circuit that in the absence of a fault condition causes the switch control circuit to perform said ramping responsive to detection of the load condition while the discharge transistor control pin is de-asserted.

Abstract: A portable power bank including a rechargeable battery and/or a remote server may detect loss of capacity in the power bank battery. The power bank and/or remote server determines a nominal capacity of the power bank, and an actual capacity of the power bank, the actual capacity being less than the nominal capacity. The power bank and/or remote server compares the actual capacity to the nominal capacity to determine a health value of the power bank battery. When the power bank battery health value is at or below a threshold value, the power bank and/or remote server transmits an indication of the health value.

Abstract: A battery device receives a state of charge (SOC) a SOC setting range, charge at least one battery pack, estimates a SOC based on state information of the at least one battery pack, monitors whether the estimated SOC reaches a charging reference value corresponding to an upper limit of the SOC setting range, and stops charging when it is confirmed through a result of the monitoring that the estimated SOC reaches the charging reference value. The SOC setting range may be determined based on driving information of a vehicle, and may be within a SOC limiting range in which degradation of battery cells included in the at least one battery pack is the lowest.
