Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A booting method for low temperature environment and an electronic apparatus therefor are provided. The booting method includes the following steps: reading a booting process record from a memory unit of the electronic apparatus; executing a booting process according to the booting process record, wherein the booting process includes a plurality of booting subroutines; and when executing one of the booting subroutines, updating the booting process record stored in the memory unit of the electronic apparatus corresponding to the booting subroutine, wherein the booting subroutines include providing a power output by controlling a power supply unit of the electronic apparatus, and an output value of the power output gradually increases as executing the booting subroutines sequentially.
