Abstract

Faster charging of a battery, including: opening a first switch disposed between an input node of the battery and an input node of a load to decouple the input node of the battery from the input node of the load; and charging the battery using a first charging source coupled to the input node of the battery while the load is being powered through the input node of the load via a second charging source having a charge rate slower than the first charging source.
