A resonant converter includes: a first switching element and a second switching element, which are connected in series; a series resonant circuit, which includes a primary coil of a transformer having leakage inductance and a current resonant capacitor, and which is connected in parallel to one of the first switching element and the second switching element; a rectifying-and-smoothing circuit, which is connected to a secondary coil of the transformer, wherein an output voltage is to be supplied to a load; and a clamp circuit, which clamps a voltage between both ends of the current resonant capacitor to a predetermined voltage value, wherein, when an output current supplied from the rectifying-and-smoothing circuit to the load is higher than the predetermined current value, an output characteristic is set so that, as the output current is increased, the output voltage is decreased.
