Abstract

See full text

A circuit in an electronic device coupled to a battery via a first pair of switches includes a logic unit and a filter. The logic unit receives a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal and a first signal, and generates a second signal according to the PWM signal and the first signal. The filter is coupled to the logic unit and converts the PWM signal into a first voltage under the control of the second signal. When the first voltage is at a voltage of the battery and a duty cycle of the PWM signal is at a specified value, the first pair of switches controls power to the battery under control of the PWM signal and the circuit is disabled by the first signal.
