Abstract
A setting unit sets a duty ratio of a PWM signal based on a target voltage value, and outputs the duty ratio to a voltage conversion circuit. An estimated value calculation unit cyclically calculates an estimated duty ratio value based on the detected input voltage value and the detected output voltage value. An abnormality detection unit cyclically calculates, as a difference value, a difference between an updated estimated value and a comparison reference value, and detects abnormality of a voltage detection unit based on a change in calculated difference value. The updated estimated value is a newly calculated estimated duty ratio value. The comparison reference value is a value based on the estimated duty ratio value calculated in a cycle prior to a cycle in which the updated estimated value is calculated.
