Abstract
A switching transistor is connected to the primary coil of a transformer. A first resistor is provided such that one end thereof is connected to the switching transistor, and the other end thereof is grounded. A first voltage comparator compares a first detection voltage with a first threshold voltage. A second voltage comparator compares a second detection voltage with a second threshold voltage. A switching control unit controls the ON/OFF state of the switching transistor according to the output signals of the first voltage comparator and the second voltage comparator. A first electrode pad through a fourth electrode pad are provided to the respective nodes of the switching transistor and the first resistor.
