Abstract
Disclosed herein is a control circuit of a boost DC/DC converter having a high-side transistor and a low-side transistor. The circuit includes an input pin that receives an input voltage of the boost DC/DC converter, a pulse modulator that generates a pulse signal pulse-modulated in such a manner that output of the boost DC/DC converter comes close to a target state, a logic circuit that generates a control signal of the high-side transistor and a control signal of the low-side transistor on the basis of the pulse signal, and a switch driving circuit that drives a load switch that is a PMOS transistor connected to the high-side transistor and a load between them. When stopping the boost DC/DC converter, the switch driving circuit applies a voltage corresponding to the input voltage of the boost DC/DC converter to a gate of the PMOS transistor.
