Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic apparatus comprising a plurality of electronic components, further comprising a connection detector to detect whether an external device is connected to a connector, and a regulator module to supply driving power having one of first and second voltage levels different from each other according to detection results of the connection detector to at least one of the electronic components and/or the external device. Thus, the present invention provides an electronic apparatus comprising a regulator module that outputs power having voltage levels different according to whether an external device is connected thereto.
