Abstract
A battery pack (12) for connection to an electronic product (10) having mating contacts (22, 24, 26, & 28) comprises a housing (11), an energy storage device (15) located within the housing for storing a charge, a first contact (38) and a second contact (36) coupled to the energy storage device and exposed externally from the housing. Circuitry couples to the energy storage device and provides at least the interconnection between the first and second contact and the energy storage device. Additionally, there is at least a third contact (34) exposed externally from the housing and coupled to at least one electronic device (42) within the housing. Finally, the battery pack has a connecting scheme for connecting the first and second contact of the battery pack to the product before the connection of the third contact to the mating contact on the electronic product.
