First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a first parameter from a scheduling application running on a mobile computing device having a battery pack;
calculating a required charge percentage for the battery pack based on at least the first parameter and battery pack data;
determining a remaining capacity of the battery pack; and
if the remaining capacity of the battery pack is less than the required charge percentage, determining a charge termination voltage and charging the battery pack to the charge termination voltage.

Abstract
According to some embodiments, battery charge management using a scheduling application is disclosed. A first parameter may be received from a scheduling application running on a mobile computing device having a battery pack. Based on at least the first parameter and battery pack data, a required charge percentage for the battery pack may be determined and the remaining capacity of the battery pack may be determined. If the remaining capacity of the battery pack is less than the required charge percentage, a charge termination voltage may be determined and the battery pack may be charged to the charge termination voltage.

9. A system comprising:
-
a processor to run a schedule application; an AC/DC adapter to provide power from an AC power source; a battery pack; a charge management module coupled to the processor, the AC/DC adapter, and the battery pack, the charge management module to monitor battery pack data and to monitor a user'"'"'s schedule via the schedule application; wherein the charge management module is to determine a length of time a user will be connected to the AC power source via the AC/DC adapter before the battery pack is used, to determine a length of time the battery pack will be used based upon the schedule application, and to determine a charge termination voltage. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
