In a control circuit for controlling a current resonance type DC/DC converter, a negative voltage detection arrangement produces a pulse while a both-ends voltage of a resonance capacitor has a negative voltage. A voltage level error signal generating circuit includes a capacitor which is charged during production of the pulse and generates a voltage level error signal where a voltage level rises. A timer produces a timer signal having a sawtooth waveform where a voltage level gradually rises. An off timing generating circuit compares the timer signal with the voltage level error signal to generate an off timing signal defining a timing for making a short-circuit switch turn off. Responsive to the off timing signal, a driving control signal generating arrangement generates a second driving control signal indicative of turning-off of the short-circuit switch.
