Abstract
An information processing apparatus capable of suppressing a secondary battery from being charged with an amount of charge current that can apply excessive load on the secondary battery, without a backup power source function of the secondary battery being impaired. When determining that a predetermined type of data is stored in a DRAM to be backed up by the secondary battery, the information processing apparatus selects a first constant current circuit and quickly charges the secondary battery with a large charge current output from the first constant current circuit. When determining that the predetermined type of data is not stored in the DRAM, the information processing apparatus selects a second constant current circuit and normally charges the secondary battery with a small charge current output from the second constant current circuit.
