  • Patent number: 11949272
    Abstract: A power supply circuit of a terminal device includes a voltage boost circuit, a battery chip, and a controller. The battery chip is configured to provide an output voltage of a battery for a load. An input end of the voltage boost circuit is connected to a positive electrode of the battery, and an output end of the voltage boost circuit is connected to the load. The output voltage of the battery is boosted when the temperature is relatively low or the output voltage of the battery is relatively low. In addition, when a relatively high pulse current occurs on the terminal and the output voltage of the voltage boost circuit is stepped down, both the battery chip and the voltage boost circuit is controlled to supply power to the load.

  • Patent number: 11476684
    Abstract: A terminal obtains a parameter from a charger, including at least one of an input voltage value and an output current value of the charger and a temperature value of a charging output port of the charger. When a parameter value is greater than a threshold, the terminal terminates a charging process based on a relationship between a corresponding threshold and at least one of a difference between the output current value of the charger and an input current value of the terminal, a power loss from the charger to the terminal, and a temperature value.

  • Patent number: 10784692
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for checking a charging parameter. The method includes: after a communication channel between a terminal and a charger is successfully established, reading, by the terminal, charging capability information of the charger in a preset manner; comparing a maximum capability value of the charger for each preset charging parameter with a target value that is corresponding to a corresponding preset charging parameter and that is stored in the terminal, and determining a minimum value as a first configuration value for the corresponding preset charging parameter; writing, into the charger, the first configuration value that is obtained by means of comparison and that is for each preset charging parameter; reading a second configuration value of the charger for each preset charging parameter; and sending, by the terminal, a charging acknowledgment instruction to the charger after determining that all preset charging parameters are successfully configured.

  • Publication number: 20190245362
    Abstract: This application provides a charging protection method, a terminal, and a charger. The terminal obtains a parameter from the charger, including at least one of an input voltage value and an output current value of the charger and a temperature value of a charging output port of the charger. When a parameter value is greater than a threshold, the terminal terminates a charging process based on a relationship between a corresponding threshold and at least one of a difference between the output current value of the charger and an input current value of the terminal, a power loss from the charger to the terminal, and a temperature value (including the temperature value of the charging output port of the charger and a temperature value of a charging input port of the terminal). A charging port can be prevented from being overheated, and a probability that an overheated charging port causes an accident can be effectively decreased.
