Abstract

A chip, a chip set, an electrical parameter detection method, a consumable, and an image forming apparatus are provided in embodiments of the present disclosure. The chip is capable of being installed on the consumable; and the consumable is capable of being detachably installed on the image forming apparatus. The chip includes an installation detecting terminal; a chip controller configured to control the installation detecting terminal to output a low level after the chip is powered on; and a storage unit configured to store a time control parameter, where the time control parameter is configured to control a time point for the installation detecting terminal to output the low level. The above configuration can realize that the signal conflict between a plurality of chips is not generated when detecting whether the plurality of chips is in a desired contact with the image forming apparatus.
