Abstract
Provided is a controller that is capable of reducing fall in a waveform of a power supply voltage when the power supply voltage supplied to a CPU is reduced. A controller for controlling voltage regulators includes a differential amplifier that outputs a measurement voltage corresponding to a power supply voltage supplied to a load and an error amplifier having a non-inverting input terminal supplied with a target voltage and an inverting input terminal supplied with a measurement voltage. The error amplifier compares the target voltage and the measurement voltage and outputs a signal for controlling the voltage regulators. Further included in the controller is a correction circuit that applies an offset voltage to the inverting input terminal of the error amplifier when the power supply voltage supplied to the load is reduced.
