Abstract
A calibration circuit according to various aspects of the present invention comprises a battery pack, a protection IC, and a power source. The power source may have a predetermined voltage and may be selectively coupled to the protection IC. The power source may be capable of providing a current to the protection IC through one of a first current loop and a second current loop, wherein the current through the first current loop generates a first voltage across a first and second terminal of the protection IC, and the current through the second current loop generates a second voltage across the first and second terminals that is substantially equal to the voltage of the power source.
