Abstract:
1. A power control apparatus, comprising: a voltage converter that converts a voltage value of a power supplied from an external power supply into a predetermined voltage value and outputs the predetermined voltage; a voltage generator that generates a feedback voltage having a voltage value lower than the voltage value of the power supplied from the external power supply based on the voltage value of the power outputted from the voltage converter wherein the voltage converter controls the predetermined voltage so that the feedback voltage becomes a reference voltage set in advance; a current detector that detects a current value of the power supplied to the voltage converter; and a voltage correction unit that causes the voltage generator to generate the feedback voltage based on the voltage value of the power supplied from the external power supply and the voltage value of the power outputted from the voltage converter when the current value detected by the current detector becomes a predetermined current value or more, to thereby increase the voltage value of the feedback voltage.
