Abstract
A switching power supply device includes a secondary-side control circuit including a switching control circuit that generates a voltage for ON-OFF control of a switching element for synchronous rectification. The secondary-side control circuit includes an external terminal to which a drain voltage of the switching element is input, a power supply terminal to which a voltage rectified by the switching element is input, a peak hold circuit that holds a peak of the drain voltage input to the external terminal, and an abnormality detection circuit that operates based on the voltage at the power supply terminal or a voltage derived from the voltage at the power supply terminal and a holding voltage of the peak hold circuit, and outputs an abnormality detection signal when detecting an abnormal state in which the voltage at the power supply terminal decreases or no voltage is input to the power supply terminal.
