August 03 2020 - 7:00AM
O2Micro® International Limited (NASDAQ Global Select
Market: OIIM), a global leader in the design, development and
marketing of high-performance integrated circuits and solutions,
today announced the grant of a patent for a system and method for
estimating a remaining capacity of a battery.
O2Micro was issued 20 claims under US patent US 10,534,037 B2
on Jan 14, 2020 for the invention of devices with battery
remaining capacity estimating functions. A device includes an
interface and a processor. The interface receives information for a
parameter indicative of a status of a battery. The processor
calculates a remaining capacity of the battery, calculates a
capacity ratio of the calculated remaining capacity to a capacity
reference of the battery, compares the parameter with a parameter
reference to generate a first comparison result, compares the
capacity ratio with a ratio reference to generate a second
comparison result, sets an amount according to the first and second
comparison results, and changes the calculated remaining capacity
by the amount.
Dr. Guoxing Li, VP of Advanced Technology,
O2Micro, commented, "This invention provides more accurate battery
remaining capacity estimation for portable Li-Ion powered devices
to improve the user experience.”
