摘要 |
The present invention relates to a power supply system, in particular, to a power supply apparatus and a power supply method that each use a high impedance battery used for electric equipment such as a notebook PC (notebook type personal computer). Usually, electric power is supplied from a lithium polymer battery to a main body, and insufficient electric power is supplied from a main battery such as a lithium ion battery when a current over a certain amount is necessary. That is, there are included a lithium ion battery to supply electric power, a lithium polymer battery to output electric power in voltage higher than that of this lithium ion battery, and a current limiting circuit to supply electric power by this lithium polymer battery until load power reaches a predetermined amount and to limit an output from the lithium polymer battery when the load power exceeds the predetermined amount, in which electric power is supplied by the lithium ion battery and lithium polymer battery after current limitation.
