Abstract
To provide a protection circuit that can reduce output voltage that is output from a switching power supply greatly when temperature rises. A protection circuit includes a comparator that supplies detection current based on voltage Vsens that a temperature sensor outputs in case that voltage Vsens that the temperature sensor outputs exceeds voltage Vref of predetermined potential, a control circuit that supplies control current that the control circuit increases detection current that the comparator supplies exponentially, and a constant voltage circuit reduces output voltage Vout that is output from a switching power supply based on control current that the control circuit supplies.
