Abstract
An electronic device includes a first switched capacitor unit that steps down the input voltage, a second switched capacitor unit that steps down the output voltage of the first switched capacitor unit, and a control unit that controls the first switched capacitor unit and the second switched capacitor unit such that the electronic device operates in either a first mode for suppressing fluctuations of output voltage by the first switched capacitor unit and the second switched capacitor unit or a second mode for giving priority to power efficiency by the first switched capacitor unit and the second switched capacitor unit.
