Abstract
The power supply apparatus includes a transformer, a switching unit provided on a primary side of the transformer and configured to perform switching operation for converting an input voltage resulting from rectification and smoothing of an AC voltage and outputting an output voltage from a secondary side of the transformer; a first detection unit configured to detect the output voltage, a feedback unit configured to generate a feedback voltage based on the voltage detected by the first detection unit; a control unit configured to control the switching operation of the switching unit based on the feedback voltage generated by the feedback unit; and a second detection unit configured to detect the AC voltage.
