摘要： An integrated circuit (IC) includes a micro control unit (MCU), a one-time programmable (OTP) memory directly connected with the MCU, an electrical charge pump having an output port and an enable port connected to the MCU, and a switching circuit having a control port connected to the MCU, a first input port connected to the output port of the electrical charge pump, a second input port connected to a power source of the MCU, and an output port connected to the OTP memory to provide an operating voltage and a recording voltage for the OTP memory. Because the OTP memory can choose the operating voltage or the recording voltage, a measuring apparatus using this IC doesn't need an external power source to provide a VDD voltage being 5.8 volts. Therefore, a power consuming of the IC can be reduced.

摘要： A method for programming a one-time programmable memory of an integrated circuit includes the following steps: writing an instruction set into the one-time programmable memory via a first programmable interface, running a programmable self-instruction of the instruction set, and writing a proofreading value of the integrated circuit into the one-time programmable memory via a second programmable interface. The present method takes full advantage of the one-time programmable memory. Manufacturers for manufacturing integrated circuits don't write various proofreading values corresponding to different applications. A producing efficiency can be increased, and a producing cost can be decreased. The present integrated circuit needs not to be communicated with an addition storing device, so the present integrated circuit has a simple construction, and the cost can be decreased. Since the present integrated circuit can write perform a proofreading self-instruction, the producing cost can be decreased.

摘要： A power monitoring and balancing device for a battery has a power monitoring unit, a storing unit with a plurality of cells and a balancing unit. An analog-to-digital converter formed in the power monitoring unit detects each voltage of cells timely and transmits detected result to a micro controller unit to determine whether each voltage is the same or some are higher than others. If there exits different voltage, the balancing unit connected between that cell and the power monitoring unit will discharge a small amount current of the cell with higher voltage to make every cell maintain the same voltage for facilitating the battery fill with or exhaust electric power equally.
