Depth of discharge

Part of the nominal capacity of an electric storage system which is used

Depth of discharge (DoD) is an important parameter appearing in the context of rechargeable battery operation. Two non-identical definitions can be found in commercial and scientific sources. The depth of discharge is defined as:the maximum fraction of a battery's capacity which is removed from the charged battery on a regular basis. "Charged" does not necessarily refer to fully or 100 % charged, but rather to the state of charge (SoC), where the battery charger stops charging, which is achieved by different techniques. the fraction of the battery's capacity which is currently removed from the battery with regard to its (fully) charged state. For fully charged batteries, the depth of discharge is connected to the state of charge by the simple formula . The depth of discharge then is the complement of state of charge: as one increases, the other decreases. This definition is mostly found in scientific sources.
