A reference voltage generator configured to be supplied with a first voltage from an external device and to generate a reference voltage which is a voltage lower than a second voltage which is a voltage higher than the first voltage supplied from the external device on the basis of the second voltage through negotiation with the external device; a determiner configured to determine a magnitude relationship between the second voltage and the reference voltage; and an output configured to notify that a voltage has decreased when the second voltage is equal to or lower than the reference voltage on the basis of the result of determination are included.

Electronic apparatus, display device, and voltage management method

One aspect of a display device of the present invention is a display device having a liquid crystal panel and a power lamp. The display device includes: a control unit that controls a display of the liquid crystal panel based on a power supplied from an external device and controls a lighting of the power lamp based on a reference voltage; a first switch that supplies, the power to the control unit, the power being supplied from the external device via a predetermined connector; a voltage detection circuit that generates the reference voltage; a second switch that supplies the reference voltage to the power lamp and the control unit; and a second control unit that determines whether or not the power meets a condition for establishing negotiation with the external device, and turns on one of the first switch and the second switch according to a result of the determination.
