Abstract

A power supply circuit in which an increase in a leakage current can be suppressed is provided. In a power supply circuit in which a main LDO unit outputs a first internal voltage during a normal operation and a sub LDO unit outputs a sleep voltage during a sleep operation, the sleep voltage is applied to a drain of a transistor, and an external voltage higher than the sleep voltage is applied to a gate and a back gate thereof.
