Abstract
A power supply includes: a power converter that converts an input voltage by switching at a switch and supplies an output voltage and an output current to an output terminal connected to a load; a current detector that detects the output current or a current that changes with the output current and outputs a current detection signal whose voltage value changes with the output current; a signal corrector that inputs and corrects the current detection signal and generates and outputs a corrected current detection signal whose voltage value corresponds to the value of the output current; a matching circuit that inputs the corrected current detection signal and outputs to a balanced terminal; and a controller that inputs the corrected current detection signal and a balanced voltage signal generated at the balanced terminal and controls switching operations of the switch to reduce a difference between the two signals.
