INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18210376 Titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an information processing apparatus that includes a DC-DC converter. The apparatus has a calculation unit that calculates the impedance of a mobile battery attached to it. The control unit of the apparatus controls whether the boost operation of the DC-DC converter should continue or stop based on the impedance. If the impedance is below a certain threshold, the boost operation continues as normal. However, if the impedance is equal to or above the threshold but below a second threshold, the control unit limits some functions of the information processing apparatus while still allowing the boost operation to continue.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus with a DC-DC converter, comprising: a calculation unit configured to calculate an impedance of a mobile battery attached to the information processing apparatus; and a control unit configured to control continuation or stop of a boost operation of the DC-DC converter on a basis of the impedance, wherein the control unit performs control to continue the boost operation of the DC-DC converter when the impedance is less than a threshold, and performs control to continue the boost operation by limiting some of functions of the information processing apparatus when the impedance is equal to or more than the threshold and less than a second threshold.
