Abstract
Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide the capability to provide more detailed and granular battery function information and control of battery management and monitoring functions. For example, in an embodiment, a battery apparatus may comprise a plurality of power cells, memory attached to each power cell adapted to store information relating to operational parameters of each power cell, and measurement circuitry adapted to measure operational parameters of each power cell and to store information relating to operational parameters of each power cell in each respective attached memory and to measure operational parameters of the battery apparatus and to store information relating to operational parameters of the battery apparatus in a memory, wherein the circuitry adapted to measure operational parameters of each power cell may be further adapted to alter the measurement operation based on usage of the battery apparatus.
