A semiconductor device, for controlling a power supply which generates and outputs a driving pulse, includes: a clock generating circuit with an oscillating circuit in which a frequency can be changed and which generates a clock signal; a voltage/electric current control circuit which provides timing to turn off a switching element; a setting terminal to provide setting information from outside; a switch between a first power supply terminal and a second power supply terminal; and an internal power supply voltage control circuit which controls the switch. When voltage of the setting terminal is lower than a first voltage value, the device advances to a first stop mode in which output of a driving pulse is stopped. When voltage of the setting terminal is higher than the first voltage value, the device advances to a second stop mode in which the output of the driving pulse is stopped.
