ABSTRACT:
A power supply for use in a computer system according to this invention has a one-chip microcomputer having a built-in A/D converter. The microcomputer, which has a communication function, performs a power off sequence for a computer system and a power off sequence for a hard disk drive built in the computer system, while communicating with the computer system. Further, the microcomputer detects the voltage and current of a chargeable battery, discriminates a low battery state, monitors a power switch, a hard disk drive switch and a reset switch, and monitors an input/output voltage.
