1. A charging control apparatus for electronic device, comprising a power adapter and a charging control circuit;

  • the power adapter being configured to charge a battery in the electronic device and to perform data communication with the charging control circuit via a communication interface thereof;

    the charging control circuit is-being built in the electronic device and being configured to detect a voltage of the battery;

    each of the charging control circuit and the battery being coupled to the communication interface of the power adapter via a communication interface of the electronic device;

    wherein during a process of charging the battery, the power adapter first charges the battery with a constant-voltage direct current output, and then after the power adapter receives a quick-charging instruction sent by the charging control circuit, the power adapter adjusts an output voltage according to the voltage of the battery fed back by the charging control circuit, and if the output voltage meets a quick-charging voltage condition pre-set by the charging control circuit, the power adapter adjusts an output current and the output voltage respectively according to a preset quick-charging current value and a preset quick-charging voltage value for quick-charging the battery, and meanwhile the charging control circuit introduces direct current from the power adapter for charging the battery; and

    during a process of quick-charging the battery, the power adapter adjusts the output current in real time according to the output voltage thereof and the voltage of the battery.
