Abstract:
According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise: a connection circuit configured to connect to an external electronic device, a processor configured to: transmit, to a low power control circuit, a first control signal including power saving state information for the electronic device and a second control signal including charging enabled state information based on a power state of the electronic device being a power saving state, and a charging function setting state for the external electronic device being determined as a charging enabled state based on the external electronic device being connected to the connection circuit, and the low power control circuit being configured to cut off first power to a data input/output control circuit based on the power saving state information for the electronic device included in the first control signal and to supply second power to the external electronic device connected to the connection circuit based on the charging enabled state information included in the second control signal.
