Abstract

A power supply circuit includes: a first switch and a second switch that are connected in series between an input voltage terminal and a reference power supply; a controller that controls the first and second switches to be turned on and off by turns; a comparator that has an inverting input terminal connected to a voltage supply and that has a non-inverting input terminal connected to a first terminal of a capacitor; a third switch that is provided between an output terminal and the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator; a fourth switch that is provided between a connection node of the first and second switches, and a second terminal of the capacitor; and a latch circuit that detects change of output of the output terminal of the comparator and controls the second switch to be turned off.
