2. Battery charger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_charger

   A battery charger, recharger, or simply charger, [1] [2] is a device that stores energy in an electric battery by running current through it. The charging protocol—how much voltage and current, for how long and what to do when charging is complete—depends on the size and type of the battery being charged.

3. AC adapter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_adapter

   An AC adapter or AC/DC adapter (also called a wall charger, power adapter, power brick, or wall wart) [1] is a type of external power supply, often enclosed in a case similar to an AC plug. [2] AC adapters deliver electric power to devices that lack internal components to draw voltage and power from mains power themselves.

4. Universal charger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_charger

   Universal charger or common charger refers to various projects to standardize the connectors of power supplies, particularly for battery-powered devices. Since the publication of the USB Power Delivery standard in 2012, and the USB-C connector in 2014, USB-C has become a widespread standard for charging mobile phones.

5. DC-to-DC converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC-to-DC_converter

   DC-to-DC converters are used in portable electronic devices such as cellular phones and laptop computers, which are supplied with power from batteries primarily. Such electronic devices often contain several sub-circuits, each with its own voltage level requirement different from that supplied by the battery or an external supply (sometimes higher or lower than the supply voltage).

6. Common external power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_external_power_supply

   Incompatibility of chargers for mobile phones is a major environmental problem and an inconvenience for users across the EU. Currently specific chargers are sold together with specific mobile phones. A user who wants to change his/her mobile phone must usually acquire a new charger and dispose the current one, even if this is in perfect condition.

7. DC connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_connector

   Many mobile phones use DC connectors that are unique to the manufacturer, or even a specific phone. In the interest of improved interoperability of phone battery chargers, major manufacturers have agreed to standardize on the micro-USB connector for new phone chargers from 2010. [16]

8. Power management integrated circuit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_management...

   Although PMIC refers to a wide range of chips (or modules in system-on-a-chip devices), most include several DC/DC converters or their control part. A PMIC is often included in battery-operated devices (such as mobile phone, portable media players) and embedded devices (such as routers) to decrease the amount of space required.

9. Charge controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_controller

   Charge controller circuits are used for rechargeable electronic devices such as cell phones, laptop computers, portable audio players, and uninterruptible power supplies, as well as for larger battery systems found in electric vehicles and orbiting space satellites [9]
