ABSTRACT:
A circuit for serially connecting multiple batteries to a battery-powered device such as a notebook computer or camcorder so that the device will serially charge or discharge the batteries. The device includes at least two controllable switch circuits for selectively connecting batteries to the battery-powered device, a power flow sensor for sensing power flow from the device to the selected battery or vice-versa, and a selector circuit for sequentially enabling the switch circuits to sequentially connect the batteries to the battery-powered device so that the batteries will sequentially charge or discharge.
