Charging techniques for solid-state batteries in portable electronic devices

A system for managing use of a solid-state battery in a portable electronic device, comprising:

• a monitoring apparatus configured to monitor a temperature of the solid-state battery during charging of the solid-state battery;
• and
• a management apparatus configured to modify a charge rate by increasing at least one of a charge current of the solid-state battery and a charge voltage of the solid-state battery when the monitored temperature exceeds a first temperature threshold, wherein the first temperature threshold is in a range of 45 degree Celsius and above.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, readable by a processor and comprising instructions stored thereon to cause the processor to:

• monitor a temperature of the solid-state battery during charging of the solid-state battery;
• and
• modify a charge rate by increasing at least one of a charge current of the solid-state battery and a charge voltage of the solid-state battery when the monitored temperature exceeds a first temperature threshold, wherein the first temperature threshold is in a range of 45 degree Celsius and above.

The portable electronic device of claim 31, wherein the management apparatus is configured to modify the charge rate by 3° C. while the monitored temperature exceeds the second temperature threshold.
