Abstract
A switching power supply of a step-down chopper system, which is capable of reducing power consumption and unused power supply to the output. A voltage supplied to an input main terminal is turned ON/OFF by a switching device controlled by a control circuit, and outputted to an output main terminal through a conversion circuit. An output voltage detecting circuit detects the output voltage at the output main terminal, and according to the state of the output voltage detected, a feedback circuit is controlled, so that the ON/OFF control over the switching device by the control circuit is paused (or stopped). Thus, the switching device oscillates or is paused (stopped) according to the output voltage.
