An LED drive circuit is provided that can be connected to an alternating current power source via a phase-control light controller and drives an LED load. The LED drive circuit includes: a switching power source portion having a switching element, a switching current detection portion that detects a switching current, and an LED current detection portion that detects an LED current; a first subtraction portion that subtracts a given value from an output of the switching current detection portion; a first determination portion that determines, through computation on a plurality of externally inputted voltages, a target value to which the switching current is limited; a second subtraction portion that subtracts a given value from an output of the LED current detection portion; a second determination portion that determines, through computation on a plurality of externally inputted voltages, a target value of the LED current; a switching current limitation portion that, if a result of the subtraction by the first subtraction portion exceeds a result of the determination by the first determination portion, switches off the switching element so as to limit the switching current; and an LED current control portion that drives the switching element to control the LED current so that a result of the subtraction by the second subtraction portion coincides with a result of the determination by the second determination portion. |
