A power supply device comprises: a voltage converting portion that
converts a voltage generated from a power supply portion into an output
voltage to be supplied to a load; a voltage divider circuit that
generates an output voltage setting signal for providing a set value of
the output voltage; a set value changeover portion that turns on/off set
value changeover switches to change a voltage divider ratio of the
voltage divider circuit to change the set value; a storage device that
stores a state appropriate for each set value changeover switch for
keeping the value of the output voltage within a specified range; a set
value changeover switch control portion that controls the set value
changeover switches so as to bring each set value changeover switch into
a state as stored in the storage device when the voltage is supplied from
the voltage converting portion to the load; and an output voltage control
portion that controls the voltage converting portion so as to make zero a
deviation between the value of the output voltage and the set value.
