Abstract:
A rechargeable battery is coupled to a power delivery unit or an external load unit. In a charging mode, the power delivery unit converts an input power to a converted voltage and/or current. A charging circuit converts the converted voltage and/or current to a charging voltage and/or current for charging the rechargeable battery. Power data is communicated between the power delivery unit and the rechargeable battery by: 1) the power delivery unit adjusting the converted voltage, wherein the power data is expressed by plural voltage levels of the converted voltage; and/or 2) the rechargeable battery adjusting a battery input current, wherein the power data is expressed by plural current levels of the battery input current. At least one of the converted voltage, the converted current, the charging voltage, or the charging current is adjusted according to the power data.

Claim (Index 7):
A battery control circuit configured to operably control a rechargeable battery which is configured to be coupled to a power delivery unit or an external load unit through a conversion node, wherein the power delivery unit includes a delivering power converter circuit and a delivery control circuit, and the rechargeable battery includes the battery control circuit and a battery cell; the battery control circuit comprising:\n a charging circuit; a supplying power converter circuit; and a battery control unit; wherein in a charging mode, the power delivery unit converts an input power to a converted power on the conversion node, wherein the converted power includes a converted voltage and a converted current, and the charging circuit converts the converted power to a charging power to charge the battery cell, wherein the charging power includes a charging voltage and a charging current, and in the charging mode, power data is communicated between the power delivery unit and the rechargeable battery through the conversion node by at least one of the following ways: (1) the delivery control circuit transmitting the power data through the conversion node by controlling the delivering power converter circuit to adjust the converted voltage, wherein the power data is expressed by plural voltage levels of the converted voltage, and the battery control unit receiving the power data through the conversion node by sensing the converted voltage; and/or (2) the battery control unit transmitting the power data through the conversion node by adjusting a battery input current, wherein the power data is expressed by plural current levels of the battery input current, and the delivery control circuit receiving the power data through the conversion node by sensing the battery input current; wherein at least one of the converted voltage, the converted current, the charging voltage, or the charging current is adjusted according to the power data; wherein in a supply mode, the supplying power converter circuit converts a battery voltage of the battery cell to an output power on the conversion node to supply power to the external load unit, wherein the output power is compliant to a universal battery specification.
