Abstract
A switching power supply circuit includes a full-wave rectification circuit that performs full-wave rectification of an AC input voltage so as to generate a primary voltage, a transformer that transforms the primary voltage into a secondary voltage utilizing electromagnetic induction between first and second isolated windings, a rectifying and smoothing circuit that generates a DC output voltage from the secondary voltage so as to supply the DC output voltage to a load, a primary current control circuit that performs on/off control of primary current based on a result of comparison between a primary current detection voltage corresponding to the primary current flowing in the first winding and a first reference voltage, and a reference voltage correction circuit for monitoring an on-duty ratio of secondary current flowing in the second winding so as to correct the first reference voltage.
