Abstract
A method includes calculating power consumption of a DC-DC converter, controlling the DC-DC converter so that an output direct current voltage output from the DC-DC converter becomes higher than a target voltage preset in the DC-DC converter when a power consumption is less than first power, and controlling the DC-DC converter so that the output direct current voltage output from the DC-DC converter becomes lower than the target voltage when the power consumption exceeds second power greater than the first power.
