    摘要: In a power supply apparatus, a charge-pump type step-up circuit is adapted to charge a step-up capacitor by a power supply voltage, step up a charged voltage of the step-up capacitor using a charge-pump operation, and discharge a stepped-up voltage to a smoothing capacitor. A regulator has a first comparator adapted to compare a voltage corresponding to an output voltage of the step-up circuit with a reference voltage to generate a comparison output signal and skip a clock signal in accordance with the comparison output signal, so that the output voltage of the step-up circuit is brought close to a target voltage. Discharging of the smoothing capacitor is carried out through a resistor with a predetermined time constant when the output voltage of the step-up circuit is between the target voltage and a voltage lower than the target voltage by a predetermined value.
