Abstract
A switching regulator includes a load determination circuit. The load determination circuit feeds, to an offset voltage generation circuit, a different load determination signal at the time of light load or at the time of heavy load. The offset voltage generation circuit applies an offset voltage corresponding to whether a load is light or heavy to the inverting input terminal of a PWM comparator to acquire the responsiveness and the stability of the switching regulator.
