Abstract

A power unit is provided that is not affected by a voltage fluctuation of a reverse flow-preventive diode provided in an output line thereof and that can provide a stable output controlled with a high accuracy. A first rectified diode,rectified and a first smoothing capacitor,smoothes the voltage switched by a transformer,to generate a DC voltage (V,) at an A point. A reverse flow-preventive diode,and an output resistor,are provided between the A point and a positive output terminal,The comparison/detection circuit,compares the anode and cathode potentials of the reverse flow-preventive diode,with each other. The comparison/detection circuit,supplies a differential amplifier,the anode or cathode potential whichever is lower.
