CONTROL CIRCUIT AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A control circuit provided in an electronic device and connected to a power supply, the electronic device including a battery module, the control circuit comprising:
- a detecting unit for providing a detecting result when the power supply is connected to the electronic device;
a processing unit connected to the detecting unit for determining a type of the power supply according to the detecting result;
a control unit connected to the processing unit and the battery module; and
a switch connected to the power supply and the processing unit,wherein when the processing unit determines that the power supply is a solar power adapter, the processing unit outputs a first control signal and a turn-off signal, the control unit controls operation of the battery module according to the first control signal, and the switch is turned off according to the turn-off signal, preventing the power supply from supplying power to the electronic device.

Abstract
This invention provides a control circuit and an electronic device including the same. The control circuit is disposed in an electronic device for connecting a power supply. The electronic device includes a battery module. The control circuit includes a detecting unit, a processing unit, a control unit, and a switch. When the power supply is connected to the electronic device, the detecting unit provides a detecting result. The processing unit determines a type of the power supply according to the detecting result. When the processing unit determines that the power supply is a solar power adapter, the processing unit outputs a first control signal and a turn-off signal. The control unit controls operation of the battery module according to the first control signal. Further, the switch is turned off according to the turn-off signal, preventing the power supply from supplying power to the electronic device.
