Inhalation component generating device, control circuit, and control method and control program of inhalation component generating device

Abstract

An inhalation component generating device includes: a power supply; a load group including a load configured to evaporate or atomize an inhalation component source by power from the power supply; and a control circuit configured to be able to acquire a voltage value of the power supply. The control circuit performs: a process (al) of acquiring a closed circuit voltage value of the power supply in a closed circuit state in which the power supply and the load group are electrically connected; and a process (a2) of comparing the acquired closed circuit voltage value and a first reference voltage value, and determining that the power supply is in a small residual amount state in a case where the closed circuit voltage value is smaller than or is equal to or smaller than the reference voltage value.

 a power supply;   a heating means configured to evaporate or atomize an inhalation component source by power from the power supply to generate an inhalation component;   a light emitting unit including one or a plurality of light sources; and   a control circuit configured to control operation of the heating means and the light emitting unit, wherein   the control circuit is configured to:
 cause the light emitting unit to emit light in a first mode, when the power is supplied to the heating means; 
 cause the light emitting unit to emit light in a second mode different from the first mode, when a residual amount of the power supply is not sufficient or when the heating means is in a power supply prohibition state; 
 cause the light emitting unit to emit light in the same color, between the second mode when the residual amount of the power supply is not sufficient and the second mode when the heating means is in the power supply prohibition state; and 
 suppress discharge of the power supply, when the residual amount of the power supply is not sufficient.
