METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING SECONDARY POWER DEVICE, AND ELECTRONIC SYSTEM INCLUDING THE APPARATUS

A method and apparatus are for monitoring a secondary power device and for accurately checking a state of the secondary power device, and an electronic system includes the apparatus. The method of monitoring a secondary power device includes setting a first reference parameter by using a voltage of at least one capacitor of the secondary power device, setting a second reference parameter by using the voltage of the at least one capacitor and the first reference parameter, and setting a reference level for checking of the state of the secondary power device by using the second reference parameter, wherein the reference level is used in checking of the state of the secondary power device.
