ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND POWER SOURCE CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. An electronic device comprising:
- a first body having a first battery; and
a second body having a second battery, the second body being configured to be electrically connected to the first body and separatable from the first body;
whereinthe first body includes;
a receiving unit that receives a charge request from the first body or the second body, the charge request being associated with the first battery or the second battery;
a retrieval unit that retrieves a remaining amount of battery charge of the first battery and a remaining amount of charge of the second battery;
a comparison unit that compares the remaining amount of battery charge of the first battery and the remaining amount of battery charge of the second battery;
a control unit that carries out a charging process for the first battery or second battery associated with the charge request in a case that a power source including the first or second battery not associated with the charge request satisfies a condition based on the comparing.

Abstract
An electronic device including a first body having a first battery; and a second body having a second battery, the second body being configured to be electrically connected to the first body and separatable from the first body; the first body including: receiving a request for charge of battery from the first body or the second body; retrieving a remaining amount of battery inside the first body and the second body; comparing the battery of the first body and the battery of the second battery on the basis of the retrieved remaining amount of battery; carrying out a charging process for the requested battery indicated by the received request in case that a power source including the not-requested battery satisfies a predetermined requirement as a result of the comparing.

7. A memory storing a computer program, which when executed by a processor of a first body which is connectable electrically to a second body and is separatable from the second body, causes the processor to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving a charge request for charging a battery, the charge request being associated with a first battery of the first body or a second battery of the second body; retrieving a remaining amount of battery charge of the first battery and a remaining amount of battery charge of the second battery; comparing the remaining amount of battery charge of the first battery and the remaining amount of battery charge of the second battery; charging the first or second battery associated with the charge request in a case that a power source including the first or second battery not associated with the charge request satisfies a condition based on the comparing. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)
