1. A DC-DC converter comprising:
a step-up-or-step-down circuit including a choke coil, a pair of step-down transistors coupled to the choke coil and a pair of step-up transistors coupled to the choke coil; and a control circuit configured to control the pair of step-up transistors and the pair of step-down transistors based on an output voltage, wherein the control circuit includes: a differential triangular wave generation circuit configured to generate a positive-phase triangular wave signal and a negative-phase triangular wave signal; a switch configured to select one of the positive-phase triangular wave signal and the negative-phase triangular wave signal in response to a switching signal; an error detector configured to output an error signal according to a difference voltage between the output voltage and a certain voltage; a PWM comparator configured to compare one of the positive-phase triangular wave signal and the negative-phase triangular wave signal that is output by the switch with the error signal and to generate, in response to a comparison result, a control pulse signal having a pulse width according to the difference voltage; a switching comparator configured to compare the error signal with a reference potential and generate the switching signal; and a driver control circuit configured to generate a control signal for the pair of step-up transistors and the pair of step-down transistors based on the control pulse signal and the switching signal, wherein the reference potential is supplied from a common-mode potential of the differential triangular wave generation circuit to the switching comparator; and the common-mode potential is substantially equal to a minimum voltage value of the positive-phase triangular wave signal and a maximum voltage value of the negative-phase triangular wave signal. |
