Patent ID: 10142460

Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for managing power for a mobile device. In one embodiment, an example mobile device may include at least one memory, at least one processor, a first rechargeable battery, a second rechargeable battery, and one or more solid state relays. The at least one memory may store computer-executable instructions, and the at least one processor may be configured to access the at least one memory and execute the computer-executable instructions. The first rechargeable battery may be configured to power the at least one processor, and the second rechargeable battery may be configured to power the at least one processor. The one or more solid state relays may be electrically coupled to the first rechargeable battery and the second rechargeable battery and configured to transition between a first state in which the one or more solid state relays form a series connection between the first rechargeable battery and the second rechargeable battery and a second state in which the one or more solid state relays form a parallel connection between the first rechargeable battery and the second rechargeable battery.
