  • Detecting circuit and configuration status detecting method of real-time clock battery and electronic apparatus using the same
    Patent number: 9541948
    Abstract: A detecting circuit and a configuration status detecting method of a Real-Time Clock (RTC) battery and an electronic apparatus using the same are provided. The detecting circuit includes a power capturing unit, a voltage dividing unit and an output unit. The power capturing unit couples to a power supply output terminal of the RTC battery and captures a power supply signal from the power supply output terminal in response to a detecting-controlled signal. The voltage dividing unit couples to the power capturing unit and is configured to divide the power supply signal captured by the power capturing unit to generate a dividing signal. The output unit couples to the voltage dividing unit to receive the dividing signal, where the output unit generates a detecting result signal related to a configuration status of the RTC battery according to the dividing signal.
