Abstract

Provided is a DC/DC converter that is capable of performing stable control without being affected by noise from an output voltage and without any malfunction and is capable of operating at a relatively constant frequency. The DC/DC converter includes an ON-timer circuit configured to input a control signal, which is synchronized with a signal input to a gate of an output transistor, and output an ON-time signal. The ON-timer circuit includes: a ripple generation circuit configured to generate and output a ripple component based on the control signal; an averaging circuit configured to output a signal obtained by averaging the ripple component; and a timer circuit configured to generate and output the ON-time signal based on the signal of the averaging circuit and the control signal.
