Laptop Battery Charging Circuit Overview

Laptops commonly use 3.7V 2Amp Li-ion batteries, with six cells connected to provide a total output of 11.1V 4Amp. The battery connector has six pins, each serving specific functions such as charge input/output, communication with the system, temperature monitoring, and system detection. The SM Bus, a two-wire protocol, facilitates communication between the battery and the system for monitoring charging status.

How Battery Charging Section Work?

Commonly in Laptops Li-ion Batteries are used. There are 3.7 V 2Amp present in laptop battery. Six
cells in pair of cells are connected in it. Total output of battery is 11.1 V 4amp

In Battery Connector there are basically 6 pins.

Pin No.1 Positive supply pin Used for charge input and
output
Pin No.2 SM Bus Clock SM BUS is two wire protocol
between SIO and Battery. In
Pin No.3 SM Bus Data this battery itself communicate
with SIO and inform SIO about
the charging status of battery.
Pin No.4 Temp TEMP pin is called temperature
sensing pin. When the battery
starts charging SIO monitor the
battery temperature through
this pin
Pin No.5 Sys Detect System detect is optional pin
not on all the laptops and
mostly on Dell laptop and
some other laptops. System
detect Pin when the battery is
not connected to system and
we check the voltage by
connecting multimeter on
positive and negative pin of
battery we will not find any
voltage. The circuit in battery
will turn of the voltage gates
Pin No.6 Negative pins
SM BUS: SM BUS is also Known as I2C bus. The I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) bus is a two-wire,
serial communication protocol used for short-distance communication between microcontrollers
and peripheral devices. It utilizes two lines, SDA (Serial Data) and SCL (Serial Clock), for data
transfer.
