Basic input output system 130 is responsible for linking up between the computer hardware of electronic installation 100 and operating system.In the present embodiment, basic input output system 130 is also special in to obtain the current time of electronic installation 100, and judges that according to this whether the current time is in special time interval.In one embodiment, special time interval is for example the electricity consumption spike period, but the present invention is not as limit.For example, electronic installation 100 can provide an inputting interface to allow user set voluntarily rising up to time point of electricity consumption spike period, and whether the current time that basic input output system 130 just can judge electronic installation 100 according to the numerical value of user's input is in the electricity consumption spike period.In addition, basic input output system 130 also can be by the mixed-media network modules mixed-media of electronic installation 100 (not illustrating) interconnection network, to obtain the electricity consumption spike period of electronic installation 100 positions, and then whether the current time that judges electronic installation 100 is in the electricity consumption spike period.
Embedded controller 140 couples battery 110, power-supply adapter 120 and basic input output system 130.Embedded controller 140 is for example keyboard controller (Keyboard Controller, KBC), determine whether in order to the judged result that provides according to basic input output system 130 and the dump energy of battery 110 mode adopting when electronic installation 100 is charged and charged.
In order to further illustrate the detailed function mode of electronic installation 100, below especially exemplified by another embodiment come the present invention will be described.Fig. 2 is the flow chart of the charging method that illustrates according to one embodiment of the invention, please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
First in step 210, basic input output system 130 obtained after the current time of electronic installation 100, judged that whether the current time is in special time interval.
If the time is not in special time interval at present, as shown in step 220, embedded controller 140 can be controlled power-supply adapter 120, with power supply, battery 110 be carried out to general charging procedure before special time interval the current time of judging electronic installation 100 in basic input output system 130.Wherein, power-supply adapter 120 is in the time carrying out general charging procedure, till continuing to use power supply that the electric weight of battery 110 is full of maybe cannot uses power supply to charge to battery 110 completely.
But in current time, in the time that special time is interval, then, as shown in step 230, embedded controller 140 judges whether the dump energy of battery 110 is greater than default electric weight lower limit.In the present embodiment, can provide an interface to allow user set electric weight lower limit by basic input output system 130.And the setting of electric weight lower limit is to guarantee minimum its value that can not be less than of the remaining electric weight of battery 110.
If dump energy is less than or equal to electric weight lower limit, as shown in step 240, before basic input output system 130 judges that the current time of electronic installation 100 is left special time interval, embedded controller 140 can be controlled power-supply adapter 120 according to electric weight lower limit, with power supply, battery 110 be carried out to an intermittent charge program.In the present embodiment, power-supply adapter 120 can't be full of the electric weight of battery 110 in the time carrying out intermittent charge program, but the indication that can make according to embedded controller 140 reference electric quantity lower limits is only charged to specific electric weight by battery 110.
And prescribe a time limit when dump energy is greater than under electric weight, represent that battery 110 has operational electric weight, therefore, as shown in step 250, embedded controller 140 can be controlled power-supply adapters 120 and stop with power supply, battery 110 being charged.In other words, now electronic installation 100 is that the electric power of being only dependent in battery 110 maintains running.And basic input output system 130 can be linked up by interrupt mechanism and the operating system that runs on electronic installation 100, and then allow operating system think that electronic installation 100 is to be in the state that does not have power-supply adapter 120 to remove to connect power supply.In addition,, in the time that power-supply adapter 120 is stopped power supply and must be maintained the running of electronic installation 100 with battery 110, in order to improve the endurance of battery 110, basic input output system 130 can remove to reduce the power consumption of at least one particular element in electronic installation 100.For instance, basic input output system 130 can downgrade the central processing unit (not illustrating) of electronic installation 100 speed, close the screen (not illustrating) of closing electronic device 100 or downgrade the brightness of screen.And for some utilization rates or the lower element of importance, basic input output system 130 also can make it enter sleep pattern or suspend it is powered.
Electronic installation 100 just each step shown in execution graph 2 repeatedly after startup, and then the power supply that utilizes power-supply adapter 120 to connect in the time of nonspecific time interval is full of battery 110.And in special time interval and the dump energy of battery 110 be less than or equal under electric weight in limited time, only battery 110 is charged to specific electric weight.In addition, even if power-supply adapter 120 can receive power supply constantly, in the case of in special time interval and the dump energy of battery 110 be greater than electric weight lower limit, electronic installation 100 can directly maintain running with the electric weight in battery 110, and can not charge to battery 110.Thus, even if electronic installation 100 setting battery 110 and connection power supply simultaneously also can be taked respectively different electricity consumptions and charging modes according to different situations.
Fig. 3 is the flow chart of the charging method that illustrates according to another embodiment of the present invention.In following embodiment, be that example using the electricity consumption spike period as special time interval comes that the present invention will be described.In general, lower in the electricity charge valuation electricity charge valuation higher but not the electricity consumption spike period of electricity consumption spike period, not only can maintain the running of electronic installation 100 by the charging method shown in Fig. 3, can also reduce further the required electricity charge of charging.
Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, first, as shown in step 310, basic input output system 130 judges that whether the current time of electronic installation 100 is in the electricity consumption spike period.
If the time is not in the electricity consumption spike period at present, as shown in step 320, embedded controller 140 control power-supply adapter 120 with power supply to battery 110 carry out general charging procedure (that is, continue use power supply by the electric weight of battery 110 be full of completely maybe cannot use power supply to charge to battery 110 till).Then the flow process of the charging method described in the present embodiment will be got back to step 310, and whether the current time that again judges electronic installation 100 by basic input output system 130 is in special time interval.
If the current time,, as shown in step 330, embedded controller 140 judged whether the dump energy of battery 110 is greater than default electric weight lower limit in the electricity consumption spike period.
If dump energy is greater than electric weight lower limit,, as shown in step 360, embedded controller 140 is controlled power-supply adapter 120 and is stopped with power supply, battery 110 being charged, thereby only utilizes battery 110 to maintain the running of electronic installation 100.And basic input output system 130 can remove to reduce the power consumption of at least one particular element in electronic installation 100, guarantee that electronic installation 100 can have lower power consumption in the time powering with battery 110.
If judge in step 330, dump energy is less than or equal to electric weight lower limit, and embedded controller 140 can carry out intermittent charge program to battery 110 according to electric weight lower limit control power-supply adapter 120.In detail, in step 340, embedded controller 140 can first be set an electric weight upper limit according to electric weight lower limit accordingly, and this electric weight upper limit is greater than electric weight lower limit.
In one embodiment, embedded controller 140 can be obtained the electric weight upper limit corresponding to electric weight lower limit by the mode of tabling look-up.In another embodiment, basic input output system 130 is left the remaining time of electricity consumption spike period according to the current time judgement of electronic installation 100, and will be sent to embedded controller 140 remaining time.Then, embedded controller 140 calculates and within remaining time, will maintain the required electric weight that electronic installation 100 operates.Prescribe a time limit when required electric weight is less than or equal under electric weight, embedded controller 140 can be used as the electric weight upper limit with the summation of electric weight lower limit and a default electric weight.Prescribe a time limit and be greater than under electric weight at required electric weight, 140 of embedded controllers can be using required electric weight as the electric weight upper limit.Then in step 350, embedded controller 140 is controlled power-supply adapter 120 and with power supply, battery 110 is charged, until the electric weight of battery 110 arrives the electric weight upper limit.The electric weight that can guarantee accordingly battery 110 can be lower than electric weight lower limit.
For instance, suppose to be limited under electric weight 15% of battery 110 total electric weight.Be 50% of battery 110 total electric weight if will maintain the required electric weight of electronic installation 100 normal operations within remaining time, embedded controller 140 can be controlled power-supply adapter 120 and utilize power supply that the electric weight of battery 110 is charged to 50% of total electric weight.But, be 10% of battery 110 total electric weight if will maintain the required electric weight of electronic installation 100 normal operations within remaining time, and default electric weight is 20% of battery 110 total electric weight, embedded controller 140 can be controlled power-supply adapter 120 electric weight of battery 110 is charged to 30% of total electric weight so.
After being charged to the electric weight upper limit, next as shown in step 360, embedded controller 140 is controlled power-supply adapter 120 and is stopped with power supply, battery 110 being charged, thereby only maintain the running of electronic installation 100 with battery 110, and basic input output system 130 can remove to reduce the power consumption of at least one particular element in electronic installation 100, to promote the endurance of battery 110.
Thereafter, charging method described in the present embodiment will be got back to step 310, whether the current time that again judges electronic installation 100 by basic input output system 130 is in the electricity consumption spike period, thereby and repeat above steps and utilize general charging procedure that the electric weight of battery 110 is full of in the non-electricity consumption spike period, to enjoy lower electricity charge pricing mode.And in the more expensive electricity consumption spike period of electricity price, want directly only to maintain with the existing electric weight of battery 110 running of electronic installation 100 according to the comparative result judgement of the dump energy of battery 110 and electric weight lower limit, or only (battery 110 is charged to specific electric weight, the electric weight upper limit), so can avoid battery 110 being carried out non-essential charging action and causing the electricity charge too high during compared with your in electricity price.In addition, can guarantee the electric weight of battery 110 and be not less than electric weight lower limit due to the charging method described in the present embodiment, even if therefore user pulls out power-supply adapter 120, electronic installation 100 also can utilize the electric weight being retained in battery 110 to maintain running.
In sum, electronic installation of the present invention and charging method thereof are that judge whether according to the current whether dump energy of the battery in special time interval and electronic installation need to be to charge electronic devices.In the situation that judging that dump energy is enough, even if electronic installation has the power supply of connection also battery not to be charged, and directly only maintain the running of electronic installation with battery.In addition in judgement need to charge time, can be according to whether automatically switching and use different charging procedures in special time interval.Accordingly, can not only charge to guarantee electronic installation normal operation in good time, can also avoid battery overcharge and waste electric power resource.If special time interval is set as to the comparatively expensive electricity consumption spike period of electricity charge valuation, can further reaches the effect of saving the electricity charge.
