1. A method of controlling a low voltage DC-DC converter (LDC) of an environmentally-friendly vehicle, comprising:
- measuring a load current consumed by electric loads of the environmentally-friendly vehicle;
identifying a state of an auxiliary battery of the environmentally-friendly vehicle; and
when the load current is smaller than a predetermined value, and the state of the auxiliary battery is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, performing a first eco mode of stopping the operation of the LDC for a predetermined time, and causing the auxiliary battery to supply a current necessary for the electric loads,wherein the predetermined time for which the operation of the LDC is stopped in the first eco mode is set based on a discharge map of the auxiliary battery, andwhen the predetermined time elapses, the first eco mode is released.
