<p>To provide an information processing apparatus that autonomously control the supply of electric power in which power consumption is realized. The information processing apparatus 1 is fundamentally in a state where no electric power is supplied to each functional unit. Only if an operation is required, electric power is supplied to perform a process. Also, if the operation is required, a CPU 20 operates in a recording mode, whereby the operation of the CPU 20 is ended upon the end of issuing an instruction concerning the required operation even if other functional units perform the processing. Accordingly, the operation time of the CPU 20 with a great power consumption canbe shortened, whereby the information processing apparatus has a lower power consumption than the conventional power consumption technique is applied.</p> |
