MECHANISM FOR EXTENDING CYCLE LIFE OF A BATTERY

摘要

Described is an apparatus for extending cycle-life of a battery cell, where the apparatus comprises: a monitor to monitor a rate of degradation of a battery cell overtime; a comparator to compare the rate of degradation with a threshold; and logic to adjust one or more charge parameters of the battery cell when the rate of degradation crosses the threshold. Described is a method which comprises: monitoring a rate of degradation of a battery cell overtime; comparing the rate of degradation with a threshold; and adjusting one or more charge parameters of the battery cell when the rate of degradation crosses the threshold. Described is a machine-readable storage media having machine executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed, causes one or more processors to perform the method described above.
