1. A power supply apparatus comprising:
- a power supply unit that wirelessly supplies power to an electronic apparatus;
a communication unit that performs a wireless communication with the electronic apparatus; and
a control unit that controls a timing for switching a communication process performed by the communication unit and a power supply process performed by the power supply unit,wherein the control unit controls power output from the power supply unit by using data received from the electronic apparatus by the communication unit,wherein the control unit has a first mode in which, after performing near field wireless communication with the electronic apparatus by the communication unit, the control unit performs first control which increases power output from the power supply unit, and second control which decreases power output from the power supply unit,wherein the control unit controls the power supply unit such that a period during which a displacement of output power which increases in the first control changes from a predetermined first proportion to a predetermined second proportion falls within a predetermined first period,wherein the control unit controls the power supply unit such that a period during which a displacement of output power which decreases in the second control changes from the predetermined second proportion to the predetermined first proportion falls within a predetermined second period, andwherein the control unit controls the power supply unit such that a period during which power output from the power supply unit is a third period determined based on the received data.

10. A method for a power supply apparatus comprising:
-
wirelessly supplying power to an electronic apparatus; performing a wireless communication with the electronic apparatus; controlling a timing for switching a communication process performed by a communication unit and a power supply process performed by a power supply unit, controlling output from the power supply apparatus by using data received from the electronic apparatus by the communication process, after performing near field wireless communication with the electronic apparatus, performing first control which increases power output from the power supply apparatus and second control which decreases power output from the power supply apparatus, controlling the power supply apparatus such that a period during which a displacement of output power which increases in the first control changes from a predetermined first proportion to a predetermined second proportion falls within a predetermined first period, controlling the power supply apparatus such that a period during which a displacement of output power which decreases in the second control changes from the predetermined second proportion to the predetermined first proportion falls within a predetermined second period, and controlling the power supply apparatus such that a period during which power output from the power supply apparatus is a third period determined based on the received data.

11. A non-transitory storage medium that stores a program for causing a power supply apparatus to execute a method, the method comprising:
-
wirelessly supplying power to an electronic apparatus; performing a wireless communication with the electronic apparatus; controlling a timing for switching a communication process performed by a communication unit and a power supply process performed by a power supply unit, controlling output from the power supply apparatus by using data received from the electronic apparatus by the communication process, after performing near field wireless communication with the electronic apparatus, performing first control which increases power output from the power supply apparatus and second control which decreases power output from the power supply apparatus, controlling the power supply apparatus such that a period during which a displacement of output power which increases in the first control changes from a predetermined first proportion to a predetermined second proportion falls within a predetermined first period, controlling the power supply apparatus such that a period during which a displacement of output power which decreases in the second control changes from the predetermined second proportion to the predetermined first proportion falls within a predetermined second period, and controlling the power supply apparatus such that a period during which power output from the power supply apparatus is a third period determined based on the received data.
