1. A power supply device for providing electric power to a system end, comprising:
a main battery;
a backup battery;
a first charge circuit, coupled to a first supply node, and generating a first control voltage, wherein the first charge circuit selectively receives an AC (Alternating Current) voltage;
a first transistor, wherein the first transistor has a control terminal for receiving the first control voltage, a first terminal coupled to the main battery, and a second terminal coupled to the first supply node;
a second charge circuit, coupled between a midway node and the first supply node, and generating a second control voltage;
a second transistor, wherein the second transistor has a control terminal for receiving the second control voltage, a first terminal coupled to the backup battery, and a second terminal coupled to the midway node;
a switch element, selectively coupling the midway node to a second supply node according to a third control voltage; and
a control circuit, monitoring a first supply voltage at the first supply node, wherein the control circuit generates the third control voltage according to the first supply voltage;
wherein each of the first transistor and the second transistor is an NMOSFET (N-type Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor).
