SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY DEVICE

摘要

An output voltage detection portion detects the change of a DC output voltage on a primary side of a transformer. A control circuit outputs a gate signal of a frequency corresponding to the detected change to stabilize the DC output voltage. A load transient detection portion includes capacitors and a capacitor and/or a resistor. The load transient detection portion detects the decrease of the DC output voltage caused by a load transient. Thus, when the control circuit is performing switching control in a long cycle under a light load, the load transient detection portion can detect a timing of the load transient without waiting until the next cycle switching so that the control circuit can vary the frequency of the gate signal to a frequency corresponding to a heavy load. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress the decrease of the DC output voltage at the time of the load transient.
