Abstract
A PFC circuit generates substantially sinusoidal current that is in-phase with AC input voltage to compensate for a power factor. A DC-DC converter converts the voltage of a signal outputted from the PFC circuit to determined voltage. A current change detection section detects an amount of change in current outputted from the DC-DC converter, compares the detected amount of change in current with a threshold set in advance, and if the detected amount of change in current is larger than the threshold, outputs a gain switching signal for raising the gain of voltage outputted from the PFC circuit. The current change detection section outputs a voltage control signal for raising the voltage outputted from the PFC circuit to a determined value. A voltage setting section sets the voltage outputted from the PFC circuit to the determined value on the basis of the voltage control signal.
