A current measuring apparatus for measuring a power supply current
received by an electronic device includes: a first current supplying unit
for outputting a first current which is a part of the power supply
current; a smoothing capacitor for smoothing the first current output by
the first current supplying unit connected with one end thereof; a
capacitor of device side for smoothing the power supply current,
electrostatic capacity of the capacitor of device side being smaller than
that of the smoothing capacitor and one end of the capacitor of device
side being connected with the electronic device; a switch for making the
first current flow from the smoothing capacitor to the capacitor of
device side in case of being ON; a second current supplying unit for
outputting a second current smaller than the first current to the
capacitor of device side via a path parallel to the switch; and a power
supply current acquiring unit for acquiring the power supply current on
the basis of the second current output by the second current supplying
unit.
