Classification: CPC B  H | IPC B  H

Claim 0:
1. A vehicle power supply device comprising:
a voltage decrease circuit including multiple metal oxide silicon field effect transmitters as switching elements, the voltage decrease circuit being configured to:
receive a voltage supplied from a battery;
decrease, by turning on and turning off the switching elements, the received voltage to an operation voltage of an operation target device; and
output the decreased voltage to the operation target device;

a control unit controlling an operation of the voltage decrease circuit;
a voltage increase power supply unit connected with the voltage decrease circuit in parallel, the voltage increase power supply unit being configured to:
receive the voltage supplied from the battery;
increases the received voltage; and
output the increased voltage to the control unit; and

a voltage increase control unit switching a state of the voltage increase power supply unit between a power on state in which a voltage increase operation is deactivated and a voltage increase operation state in which the voltage increase operation is activated,
wherein
the operation target device is provided by a computer,
the computer is configured to operate:
in a normal state in which a circuit operation is performed; and
in a standby state in which a part of the circuit operation is deactivated,

when the computer operates in the standby state, the voltage increase control unit controls the voltage increase power supply unit to operate in the power on state in which the voltage increase operation is deactivated, and
when the computer operates in the normal state, the voltage increase control unit controls the voltage increase power supply unit to execute the voltage increase operation.
