Abstract
A switching power supply device of the present disclosure includes a device connection state detection circuit that detects a connection state in a load device connection terminal, in a power supply system having the load device connection terminal. The device connection state detection circuit includes a transformer, a switching element, a pulse generator, and a waveform detection circuit. The waveform detection circuit detects a voltage or a current generated at a connecting point between a primary winding wire of the transformer and the switching element in response to operation of a pulse signal. The waveform detection circuit compares the voltage or the current with a predetermined reference value, and outputs an output signal in response to a comparison result to an OFF terminal.
