A voltage regulating circuit for supplying a regulated voltage to an electronic circuit of an electronic timepiece. The voltage regulating circuit is comprised of an N-MOS and a P-MOS transistor pair connected in series with drains and gates connected together at a common junction, and a constant current source for providing a constant current through the transistor pair for developing the regulated voltage thereacross. The constant current source is comprised of a third MOS transistor connected in series with the transistor pair, and a biasing circuit for biasing the third MOS transistor to provide a constant current through the transistor pair. The voltage regulating circuit and the electronic circuit of the electronic timepiece are both integrated circuits formed on a common integrated circuit chip.
