Abstract: According to an embodiment, provided is a Bluetooth device comprising a master module and at least one slave module, wherein: the master module operates in an active mode when a mobile communication device is located within a pre-set range and switches to a power saving mode when the mobile communication device deviates from the pre-set range; in the active mode, the master module performs data communication by being connected to the mobile communication device located within the pre-set range and operates the Bluetooth device by periodically exchanging a packet with the slave module; and in the power saving mode, the master module operates in at least one of a first mode in which a packet exchange cycle with the slave module is adjusted from a first interval to a second interval, and a second mode in which a connection between the master module and the slave module is released.

Abstract: An embodiment relates to a charging control apparatus and a charging control method for an electric vehicle. A charging control apparatus according to an embodiment comprises: a proximity detection port to which a proximity signal from a connector of a charging cable is input; a first proximity detection interface for generating a first proximity detection signal on the basis of the proximity signal; a controller for determining whether the connector of the charging cable is in proximity, on the basis of the first proximity detection signal; and a relay disposed between the proximity detection port and the first proximity detection interface and providing a proximity identification signal to the controller on the basis of a control by the controller.
