Abstract
A boost-type switching power device which obtains a dc output by connecting a rectifying diode to the output side of an inductance element, connected in series to a main switching element, the device including: a control circuit which controls the operation of the main switching element by using a feedback signal in accordance with the dc output; and a constant-current circuit comprising a plurality of active elements, which are provided between the the rectifying diode and the output terminal; and wherein, when there is an overload on the output side, the operation of the active elements comprising the constant-current circuit controls the control circuit, switching the main switching element off and thereby stopping the boost function, and, in addition, the output is controlled by the constant-current circuit.
