Abstract

PURPOSE: To prolong the life of the cell used in an electronic timepiece by supplying the reduced cell voltage to a portion or the whole of the electronic horological circuit.
CONSTITUTION: When a signal ψ applied to a voltage-reducing circuit comprising capacity elements 65 and 66 and MOS transistor switches 67 and 68 is low, the switches 67 and 68 are alternately turned on and off. When the switch 67 is on and the switch 68 is off, the capacity 65 is charged by a lithium cell 69. When the switch 67 is off and the switch 68 is on, the electric charge stored in the capacity 65 is partially stored in the capacity 66, and the voltage, 2.8W3.0V, across the capacity 65 is divided into the voltage determined by the capacities 65 and 66. The reduced voltage is supplied to a portion or the whole of an electronic horological circuit comprising an oscillation circuit, a frequency divider circuit and the like. Besides this, various voltage-reducing circuits can be used.
