ABSTRACT:
A power supply unit includes a charger composed of a switch for enabling and disabling a charge current and a charge control unit for controlling the switch in accordance with the charge current, the switch being provided in a path shared by the charge current and a discharge current and including a power feed status detection unit for detecting a normal supply voltage of an external power supply source, an absence of a supply of a voltage from the external power supply source, and a drop in a voltage supplied by the external power supply source, and the charge control unit controlling charging of the electric battery by controlling the switch while the power feed status detection unit detects the normal supply voltage of the external power supply source, closing the switch when the power feed status detection unit detects an absence of a supply of a voltage from the external power supply source or a drop in a voltage supplied by the external power supply source, so as to form a discharge path connecting the electric battery and a load, thus supplying power from the electric battery to the load via the switch.
