  • Patent number: 11973431
    Abstract: A detector compares a drain voltage with a first threshold voltage and outputs a first detection signal. An ON-counter detects a period of time during which current flows in a switching circuit based on the first detection signal, counts the period of time based on a predetermined clock cycle, and outputs an ON-count value. A first comparator receives the ON-count value and an ON-threshold value and outputs a first comparison signal when the ON-count value and the ON-threshold value match. A second comparator receives the ON-count value and a decreased ON threshold value, compares the ON-count value and the decreased ON-threshold value, and outputs a second comparison signal. An ON-mask time adjuster receives the second comparison signal and outputs an ON-threshold value for adjusting a mask time and a decreased ON-threshold value that is less than the ON threshold value.
