Abstract
A voltage monitoring circuit includes: a ripple filter configured to output an output voltage from which a ripple component included in an input voltage, which is input from a voltage source, has been removed; a load configured to operate with the output voltage as a supply voltage and output a first signal through the operation; a comparator configured to compare an electric potential of the output voltage with an electric potential of the first signal and output a second signal when the electric potential difference is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value; and a control circuit configured to reduce the electric potential of the first signal under the condition that the second signal is input thereto.
