Electronic Apparatus, Charge Controlling Method, and Computer-Readable Recording Medium
First Claim
1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a battery unit including a battery and configured to supply power to components of the electronic apparatus;
a charging circuit configured to, in response to power being received from an external adapter, charge the battery using the received power; and
a controller configured to detect a charging state of the battery, divide a charging process into a plurality of charging periods according to the detected charging state, and control the charging circuit to provide different target voltages to the divided charging periods and target currents determined according to the different target voltages and preset power consumption to the battery.
