1. A power supply apparatus comprising:
- a power supply unit configured to perform wireless power supply based on a first frequency;
a communication unit configured to perform communication based on a second frequency; and
a control unit configured to control the communication unit to transmit, before predetermined power is supplied to an electronic device, a first command for acquiring at least one of data corresponding to a first address and data corresponding to a second address from the electronic device, to the electronic device,wherein the control unit determines whether the electronic device is adaptable to the power supply unit by using the data corresponding to the first address,wherein the control unit determines whether to perform a power supply process for supplying the predetermined power to the electronic device by using the data corresponding to the second address,wherein, in a case where the electronic device is adaptable to the power supply unit, and when the power supply process is started, the control unit controls the communication unit to transmit a second command including data corresponding to a third address to the electronic device to notify the electronic device of starting to supply the predetermined power, andwherein the data corresponding to the first address is unrewritable from the power supply apparatus and the electronic device, the data corresponding to the second address is rewritable from the electronic device and unrewritable from the power supply apparatus, and the data corresponding to the third address is unrewritable from the electronic device and rewritable from the power supply apparatus.

1. A power supply apparatus comprising:
-
a power supply unit configured to perform wireless power supply based on a first frequency; a communication unit configured to perform communication based on a second frequency; and a control unit configured to control the communication unit to transmit, before predetermined power is supplied to an electronic device, a first command for acquiring at least one of data corresponding to a first address and data corresponding to a second address from the electronic device, to the electronic device, wherein the control unit determines whether the electronic device is adaptable to the power supply unit by using the data corresponding to the first address, wherein the control unit determines whether to perform a power supply process for supplying the predetermined power to the electronic device by using the data corresponding to the second address, wherein, in a case where the electronic device is adaptable to the power supply unit, and when the power supply process is started, the control unit controls the communication unit to transmit a second command including data corresponding to a third address to the electronic device to notify the electronic device of starting to supply the predetermined power, and wherein the data corresponding to the first address is unrewritable from the power supply apparatus and the electronic device, the data corresponding to the second address is rewritable from the electronic device and unrewritable from the power supply apparatus, and the data corresponding to the third address is unrewritable from the electronic device and rewritable from the power supply apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A control method for controlling a power supply apparatus including a power supply unit configured to perform wireless power supply based on a first frequency and a communication unit configured to perform communication based on a second frequency, the method comprising:
-
controlling the communication unit to transmit, before predetermined power is supplied to an electronic device, a first command for acquiring at least one of data corresponding to a first address and data corresponding to a second address from the electronic device, to the electronic device; determining whether the electronic device is adaptable to the power supply unit by using the data corresponding to the first address; determining whether to perform a power supply process for supplying the predetermined power to the electronic device by using the data corresponding to the second address; and controlling the communication unit to transmit, when the electronic device is adaptable to the power supply unit, in a case of starting the power supply process, a second command including data corresponding to a third address to the electronic device to notify the electronic device of starting to supply the predetermined power, wherein the data corresponding to the first address is unrewritable from the power supply apparatus and the electronic device, the data corresponding to the second address is rewritable from the electronic device and unrewritable from the power supply apparatus, and the data corresponding to the third address is unrewritable from the electronic device and rewritable from the power supply apparatus.
