Abstract
A power supply control device that controls a switching element of a switching power supply apparatus which includes a transformer having a primary winding, a secondary winding, and an auxiliary winding, the switching element coupled to the primary winding, and a capacitor coupled to the auxiliary winding, includes: a power supply terminal coupled to one end of the capacitor; a switch and a resistor coupled in series between the power supply terminal and a ground; a first control circuit that controls the switch; and a second control circuit that controls the switching element, in which the first control circuit performs control to turn on the switch when a first voltage applied to the power supply terminal continuously exceeds a first reference voltage for a first time, and the second control circuit performs control to turn off the switching element when the first voltage exceeds a second reference voltage higher than the first reference voltage.
