A method for shipping a battery assembly includes providing a plurality of battery subassemblies. The plurality of battery subassemblies are operable to be mechanically and electrically connected together to form a battery assembly. The battery subassemblies are provided to be shipped such that an additional shipping fee that would be incurred due to a battery characteristic that is not based on the weight of the battery assembly is not incurred. The method includes shipping a first battery subassembly and a second battery subassembly such that the additional shipping fee that would be incurred due to the battery characteristic that is not based on the total weight of the battery assembly is not incurred.

A battery assembly includes a plurality of battery subassemblies. The battery subassemblies are operable to be mechanically and electrically connected together to form a battery assembly and are provided to be shipped such that an additional shipping fee that would be incurred due to a battery characteristic that is not the total weight of the battery assembly is avoided. The plurality of battery subassemblies includes a first battery subassembly and a second battery subassembly. The first battery subassembly includes a first subassembly to subassembly electrical connector, a first subassembly to subassembly mechanical connector, and a device power connector operable to supply power to a battery powered device. The second battery subassembly is operable to be electrically and mechanically connected to the first battery subassembly and includes a second subassembly to subassembly electrical connector for electrically connecting to the first subassembly to subassembly electrical connector of the first battery subassembly and a second subassembly to subassembly mechanical connector for mechanically connecting to the first subassembly to subassembly mechanical connector of the first battery subassembly.

In a method and system for managing power provided to a load, a power supply system includes a first power peripheral operable to receive and convert a first type of power to a second type of power. Also included in the power supply system is a second power peripheral operable to receive the second type of power and provide power to the load. A power event trigger device, which is included in the second power peripheral, is operable to introduce a trigger signal in the power to the load. The trigger signal, which is introduced in response to receiving a change in the second type of power, is detected as a power event.

In a method and system for detecting charger failure, a battery is operable to receive a charge from the charger via a pair of terminals. The battery includes an analog front end (AFE) coupled to the pair of terminals. The AFE is configured to receive at least one input corresponding to voltage measured across the pair of terminals. A battery controller included in the battery is coupled to the AFE by a serial link. The battery controller receives the at least one input via the serial link. In response to the voltage being below a predefined value, the battery controller is placed in a charge_not_received state, which is indicative of the charger being defective.

In response to detecting that a power adapter, having a first power rating lower than a second power rating of an information handling system (“IHS”), is coupled to the IHS and in response to a request indicating that the IHS is to be powered on, the power adapter is decoupled from the IHS so that the IHS receives power from a battery included by the IHS.

Systems and methods are provided that employ voltage regulated management of battery backup for information handling systems, such as blade server systems. The disclosed systems and methods may be implemented for an information handling system using multiple battery subsystems in a single battery backup unit (BBU) or using multiple battery backup units, and the multiple battery subsystems or BBUs may be individually controlled and managed using defined protocols and architectures.

A method and circuit to output adaptive drive voltages within information handling systems is disclosed. According to one aspect of the disclosure, a method of outputting power within an information handling system can include sensing a load current of a power output stage operable to employ more than one drive voltage level. The method can also include comparing the load current to a threshold current setting, and selecting a first output drive voltage from a plurality of input drive voltages in response to comparing the load current to the threshold current setting. The method can also include coupling the first output drive voltage to the power output stage.
摘要:
In a first embodiment, an information handling system (“IHS”) includes a processor. The IHS also includes a power rail coupled to the processor. The power rail supplies power, from a power adapter, to the processor. The IHS further includes a battery, that in response to a voltage fall on the power rail, supplies supplemental power to the power rail. In a second embodiment, an IHS includes a processor. The IHS also includes a power rail coupled to the processor. The power rail supplies power, from a power adapter, to the processor. The IHS further includes a battery, that in response to a voltage rise on the power rail, suppresses or sinks power supplied by the power adapter to the power rail.
