Abstract
A control unit activates a power supply circuit when an input voltage becomes equal to or greater than a first threshold value. The control unit brings a switch into a conductive state when the input voltage becomes equal to or greater than a second threshold value and brings the switch into a non-conductive state when the input voltage becomes equal to or less than a third threshold value. The control unit deactivates the power supply circuit when the input voltage becomes equal to or less than a fourth threshold value. Based on the number of times that the input voltage becomes equal to or greater than the second threshold value after the power supply circuit is activated, the control unit further enables a latch function for holding the power supply circuit in a deactivated state.
