A power control device includes non-volatile memory, a controller, and a logic circuit. The non-volatile memory includes a function of externally outputting a logical state of a bit stored in a specific area as a state hold signal that indicates an ON/OFF state of a device function unit before a power cutoff. The controller controls the ON/OFF state of the device function unit and also writes the ON/OFF state of the device function unit to the specific area of the non-volatile memory. The logic circuit controls power supply to the controller on the basis of a logic level of the state hold signal from the non-volatile memory.

Power control device, electrical apparatus, and image forming device

A processing apparatus includes following components. Processing units each operate when being supplied with power. A first detector detects an object entering a first detection area. A second detector detects an object entering a second detection area. A first controller controls power supply to the processing units and the first and second detectors. At a start of a power-saving mode, the first controller stops supplying power to the second detector and at least one processing unit and supplies power to the first detector. After the start of the power-saving mode, the first controller restarts supplying power to the second detector when the first detector detects an object entering the first detection area. When the second detector detects an object entering the second detection area in the power-saving mode, the first controller restarts supplying power to the at least one processing unit so as to cancel the power-saving mode.

Processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium with detections sensors for controlling power

An image forming apparatus having an operation mode, an energy saving mode, and a stop mode includes an image forming unit that forms an image on a recording member, and a control unit that controls the image forming unit, wherein the control unit includes an arithmetic unit that performs a logical operation or a numerical operation, a storage unit that stores a register value used by the arithmetic unit in a non-volatile register which is readable and writable, and retains stored information even when no power is supplied, and a change unit that changes the register value stored in the non-volatile register so as to correspond to a mode change between the operation mode and the energy saving mode or between the operation mode and the stop mode.

Image forming apparatus, information processing device, and non-transitory computer readable medium storing program

A program executing apparatus, includes: a nonvolatile memory that stores a program for activating an equipment and a variable used in the program and sustains the stored program and the variable even though power is not supplied, the program and the variable being able to be read out and written into the nonvolatile memory; and an executing unit that transmits the program and the variable to the nonvolatile memory when the activation of the equipment is instructed at an initial status where the program and the variable are not stored in the nonvolatile memory, and successively executes the program using the variable stored in the nonvolatile memory, and, when the activation of the equipment is re-instructed, executes the program using the variable stored in the nonvolatile memory.
