Abstract
A power supply apparatus comprised of a bridge circuit made up of rectification diodes and MOSFETs for rectifying an output of a generator through a full-wave rectifier circuit comprised of rectification diodes and parasitic diodes of the MOSFETs and obtaining a supply voltage of a fuel injection apparatus, the power supply apparatus being comprised of an FET control section which turns ON/OFF the MOSFETs to step up the output voltage of the generator and a transistor provided for each MOSFET, which is set in an ON-state for a period during which a reverse voltage is applied to a parasitic diode of each MOSFET and set in an OFF-state for a period during which a forward voltage is applied to the parasitic diode of each MOSFET, wherein a control voltage for turning ON the MOSFET is given between the gate and source of the corresponding MOSFET for a period during which each transistor is in an OFF-state.
