A load break detection circuit for detecting a break in a load connected to an output terminal of an output circuit includes a target voltage generator, a reference voltage generator, and a comparator. The reference voltage generator generates a reference voltage and a command value. When the output terminal is open-circuited, a flyback voltage is applied to the output terminal and the target voltage generator outputs a target voltage equal to the command value to the output terminal. The target voltage generator includes a voltage divider for dividing an output voltage appearing at the output terminal. The comparator compares the divided voltage with the reference voltage and outputs a load break detection signal based on a result of the comparison.
