This slide shows an example comparing the discharge curve of a lithium phosphate battery with the traditional lithium cobalt cell. The phosphate cell operates at a lower voltage, and has a much flatter discharge curve. So, the task of estimating battery capacity for this type of cell may be more challenging. Also, the safety thresholds that define “over charge” and excessive discharge levels have to be tuned differently for each type of battery. This presentation will discuss more about how to estimate capacity of a battery, and the battery management electronics in general, in the next sections.
