A terminal for a power supply system is disclosed. The terminal may have a
connection portion, a battery that receives power from an external device
via the connection portion, and a detector that detects a data signal
from the external device. The terminal may also have a determination
unit, a current converter that selectively converts an amount of charging
current from a first current to a second current larger than the first
current, and a controller that controls charging of the battery on the
basis of a determination result. The controller is configured to control
the current converter to charge the battery with the first current when
the determination unit determines the external device is not a dedicated
power supply, and to control the current converter to charge the battery
with the second current when the determination unit determines the
external device is a dedicated power supply.
