Google didn't find much of interest.
Is there any resource of general tech info on laptop batteries?
Usually there's quite a bit of info in the app notes for the various
fuel gauge and controller chips.
This might be of interest:

Looks interesting - thanks.
Some I've opened have Arizona Microchip PIC on the PCB, some have BQ
prefix
charge control chips - those I can maybe find online.
Just Microchip, not Az Microchip.

Last time I used the term; "microchip" - everyone assumed I meant just a
chip.
