Smart Watch with Power Saving Timekeeping Only Functionality and Methods Therefor
A smart watch includes a watch casing with a display disposed along the watch casing. One or more processors are operable with the display. An energy storage device powers the one or more processors. When an amount of stored energy in the energy storage device is above a predefined threshold, the one or more processors perform a timekeeping function and at least one additional function. When the amount of stored energy in the energy storage device falls below the predefined threshold, the one or more processors disable the at least one additional function while continuing to perform the timekeeping function.
Electronic apparatus, power feeding control method, and non-transitory recording medium
An electronic apparatus includes a secondary battery, a first power feeder, a second power feeder, and a processor. The first power feeder feeds power to the secondary battery. The second power feeder feeds power to the secondary battery at a current larger than a current fed by the first power feeder. The processor detects a voltage of the secondary battery, and determines a remaining power of the secondary battery based on a comparison of the detected voltage with first or second reference values. The first reference value is a predetermined value set in accordance with the current fed by the first power feeder. The second reference value is a predetermined value set in accordance with the current fed by the second power feeder, and is higher than the first reference value.
