Abstract
A near field communication device includes an RF power unit that generates an RF power supply voltage through wireless communication with an external communication device, a power detecting unit that detects an output level of a battery connected to the near field communication device, a driving control unit that controls the near field communication device, and a switching control unit that controls a supply of a power supply voltage to the driving control unit from the RF power unit or the battery. The switching control unit controls the supply of the power supply voltage based on at least one of the output level of the battery, a power on/off state of an electronic apparatus including the near field communication device, whether the electronic apparatus is connected to the battery, and whether the RF power supply voltage is generated.
