POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM HAVING MAGNETIC CONNECTOR

The disclosed technology generally relates to a power supply system, and more particularly to a power supply system having a magnetic connector. In one aspect, the system includes an electronic apparatus that includes a first terminal, a second terminal and a first magnet, wherein the electronic apparatus is configured to receive power through the first and second terminals. The system additionally includes a power supply device that includes a third terminal, a fourth terminal, and a second magnet, wherein the power supply device is configured to supply power through the third and fourth terminals. The power supply system is configured such that when the first magnet and the second magnet are coupled by magnetic attractive force, the first and second terminals of the electronic apparatus make electrical contact with the third and fourth terminals of the power supply device, respectively. The power supply device further includes a power supply blocking circuit configured to allow the power to be supplied from the power supply device to the electronic apparatus upon determining that the first magnet and the second magnet are coupled by the magnetic attractive force.
