  • Patent number: 8830699
    Abstract: An input voltage detection unit detects whether an AC input voltage is the voltage of a 100V system or of a 200V system. In response, a frequency decreasing gain setting unit switches between frequency decreasing gain characteristics relative to load factors. The frequency decreasing gain characteristics are established so that the initiation of a decrease in a feed back signal in the 100V system is earlier than that in the 200V system. By switching the frequency decreasing gain characteristics based on an AC input signal, the characteristics, in which a decrease in a feed back signal in the 200V system is earlier than that in the 100V system, are cancelled to allow load factors, at each of which a power supply operation frequency reaches the audible region, to be approximately the same to enable a vibration isolating measure to be independent of the AC input voltage.
