In order to better explain the technical scheme of the application, the following detailed description is given by specific examples:
as shown in fig. 3, the electronic device in this embodiment is provided with three connection ports, and three regulators are provided inside the electronic device, and the three regulators are respectively used for storing electric energy and supplying power to corresponding devices. Each regulator is connected with a unique corresponding connection port through a power supply circuit, a connection circuit is arranged between the power supply circuits respectively connected with the two adjacent ports, and each circuit is provided with a switch which specifically corresponds to Q1-Q5 in figure 3. When a connection port is connected with an external power supply device, the electronic device determines that the external power supply device is connected when the electronic device detects that the CHG _ OK signal at each connection port is increased from low level to high level, and determines which connection port the connection port connected with the external power supply device is. Then, the electronic device interacts with the power supply device to obtain the power value which can be output by the power supply device, and simultaneously obtains the working state information of each regulator to determine which regulators meet the temperature and time requirements at the current state and are unoccupied, and simultaneously determines the rated operating parameters of the regulator, such as the processable power value, based on which the electronic device can determine the required power and the power distribution strategy. And then, the electronic equipment interacts with the power supply equipment again, informs the power supply equipment of the required power, and enables the power supply equipment to input the matched power in the electronic equipment.

Then, the obtaining module, for example, a communication terminal, obtains a power value that can be output by the power supply device through interaction with the power supply device, and simultaneously obtains operating state information of each regulator, so that the control module, for example, a processor, determines which regulators meet the temperature and time requirements and are unoccupied based on the obtained information, and determines a rated operating parameter of the regulator, for example, a processable power value, based on which the processor can determine the required power and a power distribution strategy. And then, the processor interacts with the power supply equipment again through the communication terminal to inform the power supply equipment of the required power, so that the power supply equipment inputs the matched power in the electronic equipment.
Specifically, when the power supply device is connected to only one connection port, for example, the first connection port connected to the power supply circuit where the switch Q1 is located in fig. 3 is connected to the power supply device, the distribution strategy that the electronic device can implement includes controlling the switches Q1, Q4, Q5 in fig. 3 to be turned on, and controlling the switches Q2, Q3 to be turned off; when the second connection port located below the first connection port is connected to the power supply device, the distribution strategy that the electronic device can implement includes controlling the switches Q2, Q4, Q5 in fig. 3 to be turned on, and controlling the switches Q1, Q3 to be turned off; when a third connection port located below the second connection port is connected to the power supply device, the distribution strategy that the electronic device can implement includes controlling the switches Q3, Q4, Q5 in fig. 3 to be turned on, and controlling the switches Q1, Q2 to be turned off. When two connection ports are connected to the power supply device, for example, when the first and second connection ports are connected to the power supply device, the distribution strategy that the electronic device can implement includes controlling switches Q1, Q2, Q5 to be turned on, and controlling switches Q3, Q4 to be turned off in fig. 3; when the power supply equipment is connected to the first connection port and the third connection port, the distribution strategy which can be implemented by the electronic equipment comprises the steps of controlling the switches Q1, Q3 to be turned on, and controlling the switches Q2, Q4 and Q5 to be turned off in the control circuit 3; when the power supply device is connected to the second and third connection ports, the distribution strategy that the electronic device can implement includes controlling the switches Q2, Q3, Q4 in fig. 3 to be turned on, and the switches Q1, Q5 to be turned off. When the electronic device is connected to all three connection ports, the electronic device may implement the distribution strategy of controlling the switches Q1, Q2, Q3 in fig. 3 to be turned on, and the switches Q4, Q5 to be turned off, that is, each power supply device only supplies power to one device at this time. And if the current state of some regulators in the regulators connected in the path does not meet the current use requirement, if the current temperature is possibly too high and the like, the switch of the circuit connected with the regulator in the control path is in a closed state.
