CONTROL CIRCUIT OF SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY FOR DRIVING LIGHT EMITTING ELEMENTS, AND LIGHT EMITTING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS USING THE SAME

摘要

A control circuit of a switching power supply for supplying a drive voltage to a light emitting element is provided. The control circuit includes a pulse width modulator which generates a pulse signal whose duty ratio is adjusted such that a detection voltage corresponding to an output voltage of the switching power supply is equal to a predetermined reference voltage, a driver which drives a switching element of the switching power supply based on the pulse signal, and a standby control unit which stops driving of the switching element once a predetermined time has passed after a standby signal steps down to a level indicating a standby state, and to shut down the control circuit and a current source.
