<p>A lighting device includes: a lighting unit for supplying a lighting power to a light source unit; and a controller for controlling the lighting unit. The lighting unit has an inductor and a switching element, and a diode for flowing a flyback current of the inductor to the light source unit during an OFF period of the switching element, and the controller has a unit for intermittently driving an ON/OFF operation of the switching element by a PWM signal and a unit for driving the switching element by a frequency higher than that of the PWM signal during an ON period of the PWM signal, and when the PWM signal falls, the controller reduces a peak value of a load current flowing through the light source unit during a certain period.</p> |
