Power Control Device and Electronic Device Using the Same

An electronic device, comprising:

• a load;
• a power supply, for outputting a direct current (DC) power source;
• and
• a power control device, comprising:
• a power switching unit, for switching to output the DC power source to the load according to a power switching signal;
• a switching detection unit, for responding a power switching status to generate a switching detection signal;
• a status latch module, for generating the power switching signal according to the switching detection signal, a first status signal and a second status signal;
• and
• a logic unit, for generating the first status signal and the second status signal for the status latch module according to the power switching signal, such that the status latch module latches the first status signal and the second status signal.
