Abstract
A load control unit for controlling the supply of an electric power to a load from battery in accordance with a pulse-width modulation control includes: a reference voltage generating unit; a first charging/discharging unit; a second charging/discharging unit connected in series to the first charging/discharging unit to charge and discharge in reverse to those of the first charging/discharging unit; a first comparing unit that compares the voltage of the first charging/discharging unit with the reference voltage and switches between the charge and discharge of the first charging/discharging unit to generate a triangle wave; and a second comparing unit that compares a divided voltage by dividing the voltage of the battery with the voltage of the triangle wave generated by the first comparing unit to generate a PWM pulse. The ratio of capacities between the first and second charging/discharging units approximates to the ratio of resistances for obtaining the divided voltage.
