Abstract
According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a measurement module configured to measure power of a secondary battery, a comparator configured to compare the measured power with a first threshold and with a second threshold smaller than the first threshold, and a controller configured to, when the electronic apparatus is driven by the secondary battery, operate the electronic apparatus in any one of a first power range, second power range, and third power range based on the comparison. The first power range requires greater power than power required in the second power range, and the second power range requires greater power than power required in the third power range.
Claims17
An electronic apparatus driven by a secondary battery, comprising:
- a measurement module configured to measure power of the secondary battery;
- a comparator configured to compare the power measured by the measurement module with a first threshold and with a second threshold smaller than the first threshold;
- and
- a controller configured to, when the electronic apparatus is driven by the secondary battery, operate the electronic apparatus in any one of a first power range, second power range, and third power range based on the comparison by the comparator, wherein
- the first power range requires greater power than power required in the second power range, and
- the second power range requires greater power than power required in the third power range.
A method comprising:
- measuring power of a secondary battery of an electronic apparatus;
- comparing the measured power with a first threshold and with a second threshold smaller than the first threshold;
- and
- operating, when the electronic apparatus is driven by the secondary battery, the electronic apparatus in any one of a first power range, second power range, and third power range based on the comparison, wherein
- the first power range requires greater power than power required in the second power range, and
- the second power range requires greater power than power required in the third power range.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a computer to:
- measure power of a secondary battery of an electronic apparatus;
- compare the measured power with a first threshold and with a second threshold smaller than the first threshold;
- and
- operate, when the electronic apparatus is driven by the secondary battery, the electronic apparatus in any one of a first power range, second power range, and third power range based on the comparison, wherein
- the first power range requires greater power than power required in the second power range, and
- the second power range requires greater power than power required in the third power range.
