Abstract (en)

[origin: EP4129093A1] An electronic cigarette control method and apparatus relating to the technical field of simulated smoking. The housing of the electronic cigarette is integrated with a pressure sensor. The method comprises: obtaining the pressure data detected by a pressure sensor (S110); when the pressure data exceeds a predetermined threshold, determining, according to the pressure data, the working parameters of an atomizer, and controls the atomizer so that the atomization process is performed in accordance with the working parameters, the working parameters comprising at least one of a working voltage, a working current, an output power and the temperature in an atomization cavity (S120). The method solves the problem in the related art of low playability of electronic cigarettes and the lack of fun when using them, and achieves the effect of enhancing the playability of electronic cigarettes.
