Abstract
A switching control circuit for a power supply circuit that generates an output voltage from an AC voltage. The power supply circuit includes a rectifier circuit rectifying the AC voltage, an inductor receiving the rectified AC voltage, and a transistor controlling an inductor current flowing through the inductor. The switching control circuit controls switching of the transistor, based on the inductor current and the output voltage. The switching control circuit includes a target value output circuit that outputs a target value of a peak value of the inductor current for shaping a waveform of the peak value so as to be similar to a waveform of the rectified voltage, and a drive signal output circuit that outputs a drive signal to turn on the transistor upon the inductor current falling below a predetermined value and turn off the transistor upon the peak value of the inductor current reaching the target value.
