1. A power supply apparatus, comprising:
- a first power supplier, configured for receiving a direct current (DC) input voltage and generating a DC output voltage accordingly, the first power supplier comprising;
a main power generating unit, configured for receiving and converting the DC input voltage so as to generate a main power accordingly;
a first resistor having a first terminal coupled to the main power generating unit and receiving the main power;
an isolation diode having an anode coupled to a second terminal of the first resistor and a cathode outputting the DC output voltage;
a second resistor having a first terminal coupled to the anode of the isolation diode;
a voltage feedback controller, coupled to a second terminal of the second resistor and the main power generating unit, configured for providing a control signal to control the main power generating unit according to a voltage of the second terminal of the second resistor, so as to regulate the main power; and
a current detecting unit, coupled to the first terminal and the second terminal of the first resistor, configured for detecting a current flowing through the first resistor, so as to output an adjustment signal for controlling a voltage of the second terminal of the second resistor substantially equal to a voltage of the cathode of the isolation diode, and thus making the first power supplier stably output the DC output voltage.

Abstract
A power supply apparatus is provided. The power supply apparatus includes two power suppliers coupled in parallel so as to simultaneously supply the electric power required by an electronic product in operation. The power supply apparatus provided by the invention may stably/accurately output the desired DC output voltage to the electronic product, and may further in advance increase a main power generated inside the other power supplier when one of the power suppliers is over voltage, thereby avoiding an oversized voltage drop from occurring in the DC output voltage.
