믿을 수 없게도, 애플은 오래된 아이폰의 속도를 늦춘다 고 인정한다. Posted by batterymanufactory.com

Apple has always taken software optimization and user experience seriously on iOS, but it keeps technical details quiet. It’s a hassle even to find out at what frequency Apple’s custom CPU cores run. It looks like Apple’s commitment to delivering “the best experience to customers” has taken a rather ridiculous turn. The company now admits that recent reports about throttling the CPU speed on older iPhones are true. If your iPhone feels slower, that might be thanks to Apple and its desire to offer you “the best experience.”

This controversy began percolating on the internet about a year ago, when iOS 10.2.1 rolled out to phones. Some owners of the iPhone 6 and 6s noticed their phones became noticeably sluggish after the update, but it wasn’t until the last few weeks that a “fix” was discovered. It turned out replacing the battery would alleviate the slowdowns. Benchmarking firm Geekbench decided to look into the claims, eventually finding very strong evidence iOS 10.2.1 did indeed throttle performance on older iPhones, currently including the 6, 6s, and 7. This is something Apple has been accused of frequently in the past, but there’s never been any proof until now.

With the evidence in the open, Apple had no choice but to issue a statement. Here’s what it has to say on the matter.

  • Our goal is to deliver the best experience for customers, which includes overall performance and    prolonging the life of their devices. Lithium-ion batteries become less capable of supplying peak    current demands when in cold conditions, have a low battery charge or as they age over time, which can    result in the device unexpectedly shutting down to protect its electronic components.
  • Last year we released a feature for iPhone 6, iPhone 6s and iPhone SE to smooth out the instantaneous    peaks only when needed to prevent the device from unexpectedly shutting down during these conditions.    We’ve now extended that feature to iPhone 7 with iOS 11.2, and plan to add support for other products    in the future.

So, Apple confirms the issue here is the battery. As a lithium-ion cell ages, it can’t store as much energy, and its maximum voltage goes down. The battery can degrade in iPhones to the point that it can’t supply enough power to the custom system-on-a-chip (SoC) when it’s in high-performance mode. That’s usually when the high-power CPU cluster is active. Without sufficient power, the device can freeze or simply shut off. Apple’s solution is to lower the voltage on the high-power CPU cluster on devices with degraded batteries, which also lowers the clock speed. It says this “feature” will be a part of all its phones going forward.

Many iPhone owners are quite justifiably upset about this. If a phone’s battery degrades so quickly that it can’t power the CPU after a year of use, that’s a serious defect. If the phone is under warranty, Apple should offer replacement batteries, and consumers should know iPhones do this before they purchase one. Apple absolutely should not be quietly throttling performance to keep people from asking questions. Most iPhone users who start having performance issues with their phone will try software fixes and eventually just buy a new one from Apple. No one had reason to think replacing the battery (which is non-removable by users) would solve the problem before this revelation.

Apple says this is about the user experience, but it feels more like saving face. At the absolute least, Apple should be disclosing to users when a device’s performance needs to be reduced due to a degraded battery. Apple probably doesn’t do that because it’s bad PR, but now the cat is out of the bag. Apple should not get a pass on this.

스마트폰을 위한 어떤 종류의 배터리가 더 좋은가요? Li-Ion 또는 LiPo?

Did you ever think about why your phone works at all? Probably not. But, if you think about it, all portable gadgets rely on a battery to keep ticking – and some have better battery life than others. That’s why we’re going to take a peek at what keeps your phone ticking and why some batteries do better than others. On the basis of chemistry used for ions carrying electrolyte material, Lithium battery can be classified into Lithium ion and lithium Polymer. Lithium ion battery uses liquid lithium ion as electrolyte while lithium polymer use solid or gelatin like polymers as electrolyte. Lithium ion batteries have high energy density and cost less than lithium polymer. Lithium polymer batteries are light weight and have improved safety . However their cost is high (30% average) as compared to lithium ion. Also the the energy density of Li-Polymer battery compared to Li-Ion Batteries is quite less. Lithium ion batteries tend to lose charge with ageing even when not us...

What is KC certification? What are the requirements for the factory to pass the KC certification? Posted by batterymanufactory.com

이미지
What is KC certification? The KC (Korea Certification) certification mark signifies compliance with Korea’s product safety requirements for electrical and electronic equipment and components that utilise power from AC 50-1000V. The KC certification procedure for products includes the following steps: 1. Application - The application process involves the submission of an application form and product description. In addition, the manufacture must obtain a certificate of registration. 2. Factory inspection - Production equipment and processes are inspected and audited for compliance with applicable safety criteria. 3. Product testing - The product is tested consistent with the requirements of the applicable safety standard(s). 4. EMC testing - The product is tested for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and immunity. 5. Post-certification surveillance - Regular factory inspections and market surveillance are required to verify continued compliance following cer...

신기술로 인해 배터리가 코발트에서 분리 될 수 있습니다. Posted by batterymanufactory.com

Lithium-based batteries use more than 50 percent of all cobalt produced in the world. These batteries are in your cell phone, laptop and maybe even your car. About 50 percent of the world's cobalt comes from the Congo, where it's largely mined by hand, in some instances by children. But now, a research team led by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, has opened the door to using other metals in lithium-based batteries, and have built cathodes with 50 percent more lithium-storage capacity than conventional materials. "We've opened up a new chemical space for battery technology," said senior author Gerbrand Ceder, professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Berkeley. "For the first time we have a really cheap element that can do a lot of electron exchange in batteries." The study will be published in the April 12 edition of the journal Nature. The work was a collaboration between scientists at...
