A digital power supply device is provided. The digital power supply device comprises a digital power supply controller, a switch and a control module. The digital power supply controller includes a first digital power supply module configured to generate and provide a first electric energy to a first load via a first path; and a second digital power supply module configured to generate a second electric energy. The switch is electrically connected to the second digital power supply module. The control module is configured to send a control command to the switch to control the switch electrically connected to the first path or a second path. An operation method of a digital power supply device is also provided.

Digital power supply device and operation method thereof

A multi-phase voltage regulator includes a pulse width modulation control unit, a pulse signal extension circuit, M counts of current providing paths, and a feedback signal switching circuit. The pulse width modulation control unit generates N counts of pulse signals in a first cycle period. The pulse signal extension circuit receives the N counts of pulse signals in a second cycle period and divides the N counts of pulse signals into M counts of pulse signals, wherein M=N&#xd7;2, K is a positive integer, and the second cycle period is 2times the first cycle period. The M counts of current providing paths generate corresponding M counts of sensing voltages. The feedback signal switching circuit receives the M counts of sensing voltages, successively switches the M counts of sensing voltages into N counts of sensing voltages, and transmits the N counts of sensing voltages to the pulse width modulation control unit.
