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.
