Abstract

A first rectification circuit is connected to an output side of a first piezoelectric transformer and outputs a voltage of a first polarity. A second rectification circuit is connected to an output side of the second piezoelectric transformer and outputs a voltage of a second polarity. A frequency adjustment unit is connected between the second rectification circuit and an output of the second piezoelectric transformer, and adjusts a relationship between an output voltage and a drive frequency of the second piezoelectric transformer. A driving circuit supplies a drive signal to both the first piezoelectric transformer and the second piezoelectric transformer.
