  • Patent number: 12289420
    Abstract: An example foldable mobile computing device includes a first side including a first power storage device coupled to a first regulator. The device includes a second side including a second power storage device coupled to a second regulator and connected in parallel with the first power storage device. The second side is configured to articulate relative to the first side about a hinge. The device includes processing circuitry configured to determine a power storage capacity of the first power storage device and to determine a power storage capacity of the second power storage device. The device is also configured to adjust, based on the power storage capacity of the first power storage device and the power storage capacity of the second power storage device, at least one of an impedance of the first regulator or an impedance of the second regulator.

  • Publication number: 20230378773
    Abstract: An example foldable mobile computing device includes a first side comprising: a first power storage device (PSD); a first charger configured to output current to charge the first PSD; and a first reverse blocking component; a second side configured to articulate relative to the first side about a hinge, the second side comprising: a second PSD; a second charger configured to output current to charge the second PSD; and a second reverse blocking component; a flexible printed circuit connected to the first side and the second side; and one or more components configured to operate using power sourced, in parallel, from the first PSD and the second PSD, wherein the power sourced by the one or more components from the first PSD flows through the first reverse blocking component and the power sourced by the one or more components from the second PSD flows through the second reverse blocking component.
