  • Patent number: 10283988
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a power receiving unit that receives power from an external apparatus connected to an interface unit, a first generating unit that generates a first control signal, a second generating unit that generates a second control signal, a third generating unit that generates a third control signal, a fourth generating unit that generates a fourth control signal using the first to third control signals, a charge control unit that charges a battery with power received from the external apparatus when the fourth control signal is in a low state, and that stops charging the battery when the fourth control signal is in a high state, and a power supply unit that starts supplying power from the battery to the second generating unit when the fourth control signal is changed into a high state.

  • Patent number: 9966778
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a first switch unit being connected between an electrical load and a battery, a second switch unit being connected between the electrical load and the battery, and being connected in parallel with the first switch unit, a first control unit that controls the first switch unit so as to control supplying power from an external apparatus to the electrical load and charging the battery with power supplied from the external apparatus to the electronic apparatus, and a second control unit that controls the second switch unit based on whether power is supplied from the external apparatus to the electronic apparatus. In a case where power is not supplied from the external apparatus to the electronic apparatus, the second control unit controls the second switch unit to supply power from the battery to the electrical load via the second switch unit.
