Abstract
A control device of a power factor correction circuit disposed in a power supply device that generates a direct-current output voltage from an alternating-current voltage applied to a power supply terminal pair, the power factor correction circuit including an inductor that is disposed between a full-wave rectification circuit that generates a full-wave rectified voltage by carrying out full-wave rectification of the alternating-current voltage and an output interconnect line to which a smoothing capacitor is connected and to which the output voltage is applied, and is inserted between the full-wave rectification circuit and the output interconnect line, and a switching element for controlling an inductor current that flows in the inductor. The control device controls a state of the switching element based on a pulsating voltage obtained by rectifying a voltage between the power supply terminal pair and the full-wave rectification circuit and a feedback voltage according to the output voltage.
