The load current has a load current phase difference from the switching frequency. The phase detection and control circuit detects a voltage difference between the current inflow terminal and the current outflow terminal of the current sensing device within a dead time in which the plural power switches are not conductive. The voltage difference corresponds to the load current phase difference.
