Abstract
Provided is a power consumption reduction type power converter. For example, such a power converter includes a regulator configured to convert a power voltage into an operation power of a main integrated circuit (IC), a mode detecting pin configured to detect a voltage level of the operation power, wherein the detected voltage level indicates a disable mode or an enable mode, a mode signal output circuit connected to the mode detecting pin, configured to output a mode converting signal, and a switching controller configured to block or connect a power route according to the mode converting signal to supply or block the operation power from being provided to the main IC, wherein the mode detecting pin is connected to a first switch and a first capacitor to perform a charging or a discharging operation of the first capacitor according to a switching operation of the first switch.
