Abstract
A high voltage generation apparatus that supplies a DC voltage to a load includes a current detection circuit that detects a DC flowing through the load. The current detection circuit includes an operational amplifier, and the current detection circuit detects the DC flowing through the load, as a voltage generated in a current detection resistor. The high voltage generation apparatus further includes a voltage detection circuit that detects a DC voltage supplied from a rectification circuit to the load. The current detection circuit includes a bypass circuit that causes a current to flow from a connection portion between the voltage detection circuit and a first input terminal of the operational amplifier to an output terminal of the operational amplifier in a case where the detected value of the DC that flows through the load drops below a predetermined value.
