Abstract:
Various embodiments associated with a DCXO installed in an electronic device are described. An electronic device may include: a frequency determining unit configured to determine a delta frequency corresponding to a difference between a first frequency for RF communication and a second frequency output from a frequency synthesis unit; a digitally-controlled crystal oscillator (DCXO) configured to comprise a plurality of capacitors including a first variable capacitor and a second variable capacitor, and an oscillator connected to the plurality of capacitors and outputting a clock; and a processor configured to change capacitances of the first variable capacitor and the second variable capacitor by applying a first control value to the first variable capacitor and applying a second control value to the second variable capacitor, based on the delta frequency. Other various embodiments may be possible.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for preventing battery swelling in an electronic device are provided. The operating method of an electronic device includes checking a temperature of the electronic device and state of charge (SoC) of a battery, determining whether to discharge the battery based on the temperature of the electronic device and the SoC of the battery, and discharging the battery in response to the battery discharge determination.
