A switching constant-current power device can stabilize current flowing to a load (e.g. a display device comprising an LED, or the like) even when the current is repeatedly interrupted. A voltage current detector is connected to the output side of a power converter and creates a voltage signal in accordance with the output voltage thereof; and a feedback circuit is provided between a controller for driving the power converter and a current detector, which generates a first feedback signal in accordance with the load current. The feedback circuit comprises a signal holding unit, which outputs a second feedback signal that was created by consulting the voltage signal at a given time, the feedback circuit supplying the first feedback signal, output by the current detector, to the controller when load current is flowing, and supplying the second feedback signal, output by the signal holding unit, to the controller when load current is not flowing.
