Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic device and a method for controlling a charging operation of a battery. The charging control method includes charging a battery using a first charging mode, if a current voltage of the charged battery coincides with a predetermined voltage, decreasing an intensity level of a charging current and charging the battery using the decreased charging current intensity, and if the decreased charging current intensity coincides with a predetermined current intensity, converting from the first charging mode to a second charging mode and charging the battery using the second charging mode.
