  Design of a simpler ampere-hourmeter 

  Farré, Lluís; Closas Torrente, Lluís; Casals Torrens, Pau (2013-04-10)
  Article
  Open Access

  In any application in which working with batteries is a must, the knowledge of the batteries’ state-of-charge (SOC) is a fundamental parameter for anyone, so it determines the remaining capacity in the battery. There exist ...
