The invention provides a battery charging and discharging apparatus and method. The battery charging and discharging apparatus comprises a power source and a plurality of charging and discharging module. The charging and discharging module comprises a current-limiting transistor, a current-limiting resistor, a charging controlling unit, and a discharging controlling unit, wherein both the charging controlling unit and the discharging controlling unit are of battery voltage tracking types. When the charging and discharging module charges a battery, the voltage across two ends of the current-limiting transistor and the current-limiting resistor connected in series is limited to a fixed value by the charging controlling unit. When the battery discharges, the voltage across two ends of the current-limiting transistor and the current-limiting resistor connected in series is limited to a fixed value by the discharging controlling unit. Besides, the discharging controlling unit feedbacks the discharging energy from the battery to the power source.
