A direct current (DC)-DC converting circuit includes a voltage converter generating a regulation current in response to a driving signal and generating an output voltage and an output current; an output voltage regulator regulating the output voltage and outputting a first control signal; a voltage limiter limiting a voltage value of the first control signal below a threshold value; a current sensor sensing an intensity of the regulation current and generating a second control signal having a voltage value corresponding to a value of the sensed intensity; and a driving signal generator generating the driving signal based on the first and second control signals, the first control signal having the voltage value below the threshold value.

A remaining battery life measuring device may include a first estimator configured to estimate a state of charging of a battery using an open circuit voltage of the battery; a second estimator configured to estimate the state of charging of the battery using charge, discharge, or charge and discharge currents of the battery; a correction unit configured to generate a correction value on the state of charging estimated by the second estimator, based on the state of charging estimated by the first estimator or an output state of charging; and/or a state of charging (SOC) processing unit configured to calculate the output state of charging using the state of charging estimated by the second estimator and an accumulated correction value. The accumulated correction value may be generated based on the correction value.
