Abstract
An electronic device includes a circuit board; a battery; and a charging circuitry for charging the battery. The electronic device also includes a first sensor positioned in a first area of the battery or in an area in proximity of the first area in the circuit board for measuring a first temperature corresponding to the first area and a second sensor positioned in a second area of the battery or in an area in proximity of the second area in the circuit board for measuring a second temperature corresponding to the second area. The electronic device also includes a processor, wherein the processor is configured to acquire the first temperature via the first sensor and the second temperature via the second sensor. The processor is also configured to charge the battery with a specified current when a difference between the first and the second temperature satisfies a designated condition.
