Abstract
Provided is a control circuit configured to control a switching element of a switching power source, the control circuit comprising: a first protection unit configured to stop a principal current flowing through the switching element when the principal current of the switching element has exceeded a first threshold value; and a second protection unit configured to stop the principal current of the switching element over a longer time period than the first protection unit when the principal current has exceeded a second threshold value larger than the first threshold value. The first protection unit may shorten a pulse width of a control pulse in one cycle of an oscillation signal, and the second protection unit may fix the switching element to the off-state over a plurality of cycles of the oscillation signal.
