Abstract
A charging operation for a battery includes determining an actual full charge capacity of the battery and a design capacity of the battery. The actual full charge capacity of the battery is compared with the design capacity of the battery. One or more of a charge voltage and a cut-off current, such as with an embedded controller, is adjusted if the actual full charge capacity is less than the design capacity. The battery is controlled by charging the battery with one or more of an adjusted cut-off current and/or an adjusted charge voltage.
