Abstract
An electronic containment battery includes a battery section and an electronic section that together form a standard battery form factor that allows insertion into conventional electronic devices. In one example, the electronic section can include Radio Frequency (RF) circuitry that enables electronic operations in the electronic containment battery to be communicated or controlled wirelessly. In another example, the electronic section can include wireless charging circuitry that enables the battery section to be wirelessly charged while the EC battery is inserted into the conventional electronic device. In yet another example, the electronic section can include the RF circuitry and the wireless charging circuitry.
