The component that is powered by the battery pack being monitored is a valuable asset and must be in working condition at all times. Battery chemistry and characteristics have a major role in how to evaluate the state of the battery. The battery monitoring system has many parts that lead to an accurate battery reading. The components consist of a coulomb counting device, end of life voltage detection, a consideration of use for a real-time clock (RTC), temperature sensor, and non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM). The combination of these elements allows the monitoring system to be highly reliant. Moving forward a better implementation of the ideas in this paper and further testing should ensure a high-quality battery monitoring system.
