<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electronic apparatus which is designed in such a way that the inside of the apparatus can be cooled according to a rise in the temperature of heat generating parts in it. <P>SOLUTION: An electronic apparatus 1 controls, by a control unit 4, the operating state of a fan 6 which cools the inside of the apparatus. The electronic apparatus 1 detects, by a first temperature detection unit 2, the temperature of a first spot (e.g., a power supply unit) and detects, by a second temperature detection unit 3, the temperature of a second spot (e.g., a component part different from the power supply unit). When the temperature detected by the first temperature detection unit 2 exceeds a reference temperature, the electronic apparatus 1 controls, by the control unit 4, the operating state of the fan 6 so as to heighten its cooling capacity. The electronic apparatus 1 changes, by a reference change unit 5, the reference temperature according to the temperature detected by the second temperature detection unit 3. When the temperature of the second spot rises, the electronic apparatus 1 can adjust the operating state of the fan 6 so as to heighten its cooling capacity more quickly than ever. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
