Electronic device and method of power supply protection for connection port
An electronic device and a method of a power supply protection for a connection port are provided. The electronic device includes a first connection port with a first switch and a first controller and a first control circuit. The first controller determines a first preset value according to a state of the first switch activation signal correspondingly, and detects whether the first input voltage of the first connection port is greater than the first preset value. When the first input voltage is greater than the first preset value, the first controller enables a first abnormal signal on the first abnormal state detection pin. In response to a first forced closing signal being enabled, the first controller controls the first switch to disconnect both terminals.
CHARGING APPARATUS, CHARGING APPARATUS CONTROL METHOD, AND CHARGING SYSTEM
Embodiments of this application provide charging apparatuses, charging apparatus control methods, and charging systems, and relate to the field of terminal device charging technologies.

BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WAKE-UP METHOD, BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WAKE-UP APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Embodiments of this application provide a battery management system (BMS) wake-up method, a BMS wake-up apparatus, and a storage medium, and pertains to the field of battery safety technologies. In this application, before a BMS hibernates, a wake-up threshold corresponding to first sampling information is determined based on an obtained extremum of the first sampling information of a battery cell. After the BMS hibernates, a sampling chip collects second sampling information of the battery cell when the BMS is hibernating, and transmits a wake-up signal to the BMS when it is determined that the second sampling information of the battery cell reaches the wake-up threshold. In this way, the BMS can be woken up in a timely manner by the wake-up signal, and therefore the BMS can find battery safety problems in a timely manner.

Battery state estimation
This document describes techniques and systems that enable battery state estimation. The techniques and systems may be used to determine a shut-down voltage for a battery of an electronic device. Additionally or alternatively, the techniques and systems may be used to determine a state-of-charge of the battery, which may be determined relative to the shut-down voltage. The techniques and systems use current or expected conditions at the battery to estimate the battery state. These techniques can allow the electronic device to dynamically set a shut-down voltage, rather than using a fixed shut-down voltage over the life of the electronic device. The dynamically set shut-down voltage can provide a low margin, and therefore a greater portion of battery capacity, when operating in good conditions and provide a relatively large margin that is sufficient for poor conditions.

Large-format battery management system identifies power degradation
A battery system with a large-format Li-ion battery powers attached equipment by discharging battery cells distributed among a plurality of battery packs. The discharging of the battery cells is controlled in an efficient manner while preserving the expected life of the Li-ion battery cells. Each battery pack internally supports a battery management system and may have identical components, thus supporting an architecture that easily scales to higher power/energy. Battery packs may be added or removed without intervention with a user, where one of battery packs serves as a master battery pack and the remaining battery packs serve as slave battery packs. When the master battery pack is removed, one of the slave battery packs becomes the master battery pack. Charging and discharging of the battery cells is coordinated by the master battery pack with the slave battery packs over a communication channel such as a controller area network (CAN) bus.
