Abstract

The present invention discloses an energy-saving system for electronic apparatus, comprising an electronic device and a remote controller. The electronic device includes a power supply module, a microprocessor module and a power-saving module. The microprocessor module is electrically connected to the power supply module. The power-saving module is electrically connected to a power source, the microprocessor module and the power supply module. The remote controller transfers a remote control signal to the power-saving module. Herein, upon receipt of the remote control signal, the power-saving module electrically disconnects the power supply module so as to stop electrical energy supply to the power supply module. Herein the power-saving module consumes 0.08 to 0.12 Watts of electrical energy. Therefore, the energy-saving system for electronic apparatus according to the present invention consumes simply about 0.1 Watts of electrical energy in standby mode, thereby achieving the effect of power-saving.
