Abstract
An electronic timepiece includes: a power source; a correlation computation unit executing correlation computation processing of sequentially computing a correlation value between a signal sample and a plurality of codes corresponding to a plurality of satellites; a power source voltage determination unit to which a voltage of a power source is inputted and which determines whether the inputted voltage is lower than a first threshold or not, or whether the voltage exceeds a second threshold set to be equal to or higher than the first threshold; and a correlation computation control unit controlling the correlation computation unit to interrupt the correlation computation processing when the power source voltage determination unit determines that the voltage is lower than the first threshold, and to resume the correlation computation processing when the power source voltage determination unit determines that the voltage exceeds the second threshold.
