Abstract: An apparatus and a method for power supply are provided. In the invention, the residual standby power can be quickly discharged by an additional fast discharging unit within a predetermined time when an external AC power (for example, city power) received by the power supply apparatus capable of supporting ATX (Advanced Technology eXtended) specification is unavailable (for example, power trip). Accordingly, any host system applied with the inventive power supply apparatus and method would not be inoperable when the received external AC power (city power) is recovered, and thus effectively promoting the stability of the applied host system.

Abstract: A power supply apparatus including a master power converter and a slave power converter is provided. The master power converter generates a main power having a working voltage level. The slave power converter generates an auxiliary power. According to its operation state, the master power converter provides a corresponding control signal to the slave power converter.

If the master power converter determines the operation state is a second operation state, the slave power converter raises the voltage level of the auxiliary power to the working voltage level, so that the auxiliary power replacing the main power is supplied to a load.
