Interpreting the Battery Lifetime of the Itsy Version 2.4
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several previous studies have been performed which evaluate the power consumption of the Itsy pocket computer version 2, developed at Compaq Computer Corporation’s Western Research Laboratory (WRL). Attempts have been made by others to use the data from these studies to characterize the behavior of the Lithium-ion battery used for the Itsy. Although our previous studies correctly characterize the lifetime of the Itsy handheld under the various loads studied, they do not accurately characterize the lifetime of the battery, due to an artifact of the Itsy battery-fault sensing circuit. This technical note provides an additional study and then compares the results from that study to artificial load experiments performed directly on the Itsy battery. This new data is better suited to building a model of the battery lifetime.
