Abstract
A switching power supply includes a SiC MOSFET (a main switching device) that switches a main current flowing through a primary coil of a transformer ON and OFF as well as a Si MOSFET (a secondary switching device) that has a lower power capacity than the main switching device and is arranged in parallel therewith. A control circuit includes a driver circuit that respectively switches the main switching device and the secondary switching device ON and OFF on the basis of a control signal generated in accordance with an output voltage obtained from a secondary coil of the transformer. The control circuit further includes an enable control circuit that disables the ON/OFF switching of the main switching device when a voltage of an auxiliary voltage obtained from an auxiliary coil of the transformer is less than a prescribed threshold voltage.
