A switching booster power circuit includes a power switch, a booster
circuit, a switching control, a voltage detector and a delay circuit. The
voltage detector detects an input voltage value at a predetermined point
of an electricity supply line from the power switch to an electric load,
and determines the input voltage value to be larger than a predetermined
voltage threshold or not. The delay circuit outputs an enabling signal
enabling the switching control to operate, when a predetermined time
period is elapsed after the input voltage value becomes larger than the
voltage threshold.
