A battery condition estimating apparatus for a battery pack having a plurality of battery cells connected in series includes an analog channel switching circuit and a battery gas gauge circuit. The analog channel switching circuit has a plurality of input ports and an output port, wherein the input ports are coupled to the battery cells via a plurality of analog channels, respectively, and the analog channel switching circuit is arranged to couple the output port to a selected input port of the input ports for allowing the output port N5 to be coupled to a selected battery via a selected analog channel. The battery gas gauge circuit is coupled to the output port of the analog channel switching circuit, and used for estimating a battery condition of the battery pack by monitoring the selected battery cell via the selected analog channel. |
