    Abstract: A circuit comprises a battery field-effect transistor (FET) coupled between a battery and an electronic system so that current from the battery flows through the battery FET to the electronic system. A replica FET couples the battery to a current sensing circuit. One of the battery FET and the replica FET comprises a plurality of parallel FET segments having separate control terminals. A logic block provides a plurality of switch control signals based on a system state input. A switching circuit receives the switch control signals and selectively couples the separate control terminals of the FET segments to one of a first reference voltage terminal or a second reference voltage terminal to independently turn each FET segment on or off. The current sensing circuit provides a voltage indicative of the current flowing through the replica FET.

    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to systems, devices, methods, and computer-readable media for calibrating a charging current. A device may include a charger for conveying an output voltage to a chargeable device. The device may also include a monitoring system including an analog-to-digital converter for measuring a current received by the chargeable device. Further, the device may include a control device configured to receive a charging current value from the monitoring system and convey a signal to the charger in response to a comparison of the charging current value to a target current value.
