The main body (200) is extended from the base (100), and the main body (200), the first socket (110) and the second socket (120) are disposed on the same side of the base (100), and the main body (200) has a slot (210), and the first socket (110) and the second socket (120) are accommodated at the bottom of the slot (210) to constitute a storage structure.

Abstract: A battery pack detection circuit that can detect cold or false welding, charging status, and discharging status is disclosed. The battery pack detection circuit comprises a driving circuit electrically connected to a switch unit outside the battery pack detection circuit; a voltage detection and comparison circuit electrically connected to a multi-cell battery pack having a plurality of battery cells outside the battery pack detection circuit, wherein the voltage detection and comparison circuit is configured to detect cell voltages across each of the battery cells under at least two circuit connection conditions and compare the differences in cell voltage with a predetermined value, wherein the differences in cell voltage are derived from a subtraction operation performed on the cell voltages measured under the at least two circuit connection conditions; and an interface and control unit configured to receive commands from a SMBUS and provide a signal to a detection load.

Abstract: A linear regulator capable of sinking current. The linear regulator has an output terminal, providing the next stage with an output voltage. The next stage may feed the linear regulator with current. The linear regulator includes a first transistor, a first amplifier, a second transistor, and a second amplifier. When the output voltage at the output terminal is greater than a certain value, the second transistor conducts and sinks the current from the next stage. The linear regulator according to the invention can handle the problem of the feeding current from the next stage, making the output voltage under the restricted range of the linear regulator.
