Claim 9:
10. A method of controlling an operation of a battery by an electronic device, the method comprising:
acquiring power for charging the battery from outside of the electronic device;
charging the battery with a predetermined current value using the power so that a battery capacity has more than a first reference capacity included in a predetermined charging state measurement interval;
identifying charging state information based on a charging time in the predetermined charging state measurement interval in which the battery capacity is greater than or equal to the first reference capacity after the charging starts and the battery capacity according to the charging; and
when the charging state information satisfies a predetermined condition, performing a predetermined operation related to the battery, and
wherein the battery capacity changes linearly in proportion to the charging time of the battery in the predetermined charging state measurement interval.
