Abstract:
A PFC signal generation circuit which generates a PFC signal to control a PFC circuit including a first inductor connected to a first switch and a second inductor connected to a second switch includes: a first control signal output circuit that outputs a first PFC signal to turn on the first switch at a zero current detection timing of the first inductor; a timing adjustment circuit that generates a control signal to turn on the second switch after waiting until a target timing, when a zero current detection timing of the second inductor is earlier than the target timing, and to turn on the second switch at a target timing in a subsequent cycle, when it is later than an allowable period from the target timing; and a second control signal output circuit that generates a second PFC signal to turn on the second switch according to a control signal.
