Abstract
A temperature detecting circuit includes a first thermistor, a second thermistor, a first pull-up resistor, and a second pull-up resistor. The first thermistor has a first positive-side terminal. The second thermistor has a second positive-side terminal. The first thermistor and the second thermistor have different detection sensitivities to temperature. The first pull-up resistor is connected between the first thermistor and a power supply. The second pull-up resistor is connected between the second thermistor and the power supply. The first pull-up resistor and the second pull-up resistor have different resistances. The first pull-up resistor and the second pull-up resistor have such resistances that, in a state where the first positive-side terminal and the second positive-side terminal are short-circuited to each other, the first thermistor detects a temperature as a temperature lower than an actual temperature, and the second thermistor detects a temperature as a temperature higher than an actual temperature.
