Abstract
A recharging cable is disclosed, applicable to a smart recharging environment capable of self-detection and self-diagnosis, comprising: a cable; a plug, coupled to the cable, and having at least a power line set, and at least a communication line set, the at least power line set having a power line and a ground line, and the at least communication line set providing real-time communication between the recharging cable and a charging control end and a charged end; an electronic chip, located at one of the cable and the plug, the electronic chip being able to detect real-time information of the material property and device property at the charged end to estimate a real-time impedance information of the cable, and in combination with a historic impedance changes of the cable, to estimate an impedance reflection point of the cable related to ageing.
