ABSTRACT:
To discriminate that a rechargeable battery has reached an end of life, the maximum battery voltage detected during a preliminary charge time is compared with a predetermined reference voltage. When the comparison results indicate that the battery voltage is above the predetermined reference voltage, it is determined that the battery has reached the end of life.
