Abstract
A battery classification apparatus includes: a measuring unit configured to measure a voltage of a battery and measure a resistance corresponding to the voltage of the battery; a profile generating unit configured to obtain battery information about the voltage and the resistance of the battery measured by the measuring unit and generate a resistance profile representing a corresponding relationship between the voltage and the resistance based on the battery information; and a control unit configured to determine a criterion resistance based on a resistance value in the resistance profile, determine a reference resistance corresponding to a highest voltage in the resistance profile, and classify a type of the battery based on the criterion resistance and the reference resistance according to a content of nickel contained in the battery.
