Abstract
A power supply device includes a linear regulator including an output stage amplifier, a current sensing circuit, and a switching regulator. The current sensing circuit detects an output current of the linear regulator, and is disposed in parallel with the output stage amplifier, in a configuration corresponding to the output stage amplifier. The switching regulator operates in accordance with an output signal of the current sensing circuit. The linear regulator and the switching regulator operate in collaboration with each other to generate an output voltage at an output node.
