  • Publication number: 20140111014
    Abstract: A charging and discharging system for a battery includes an adapter, a charging controller, a converting module, and a battery. The adapter receives an AC voltage, converts the AC voltage to a DC voltage, and electrically connects the charging controller to the converting module. When the adapter is supplying power, the charging controller can switch on and switch off the converting module, and the converting module accordingly connects and disconnects the adapter to or from the battery. When the adapter is not supplying power, the battery provides power for the electronic device. Therefore, the battery is electrically isolated from the adapter and can be protected from a sudden power surge when the adapter is powered on.
