A switching element driver IC has one or more photocouplers, a driver circuit, a detection circuit and a setting circuit. The photocoupler receives setting data transmitted from a microcomputer, and transmits the received setting data to the setting circuit, wherein an input side as a high voltage side is electrically insulated from an output side as a low voltage side in the photocoupler. The setting circuit transmits the setting data to the driver circuit and the detection circuit. The driver circuit and the detection circuit operate on the basis of the received setting data. The setting data can be provided to the driver circuit and the detection circuit through the photocoupler and the setting circuit. This structure makes it possible to suppress increasing the number of terminals at the high voltage side of the switching element driver IC, and decrease the entire size of the switching element driver IC. |
