In a current detection circuit, a first circuit is connected between a first terminal and a second terminal, and a second circuit is connected between a third terminal and a fourth terminal. The second terminal and the fourth terminal are commonly connected. When a first current flows between the first and second terminals, voltage drop occurs in the first circuit. A current control circuit controls the first current to make an application voltage between the first and second terminals substantially same as an application voltage between the third and fourth terminals. When the first circuit has voltage drop same as the second circuit, the first current has the amount proportional to the second current. A detection circuit detects a current flowing between the first terminal and the third terminal by detecting the first current controlled by the current control circuit or the second current.
