Abstract: A determiner determines whether an illumination load is an LED illumination device or an incandescent lamp, based on a voltage of a rectifier within a time period from start of supply of the AC voltage to the rectifier to a time a predetermined time elapses. A control circuit controls a driver under a condition where values of a conduction angle of a switch corresponding to magnitudes of the first DC voltages except a maximum and a minimum thereof in a case where the determiner determines that the illumination load is the LED illumination device are smaller than values of the conduction angles of the switch of a case where the determiner determines that the illumination load is the incandescent lamp.

Abstract: A functional water concentration sensor includes: a container used to contain functional water; a light source that emits ultraviolet light; a phosphor that emits fluorescence when excited by ultraviolet light emitted from the light source and transmitted through the container; and a light-receiving element that receives the fluorescence, wherein a peak wavelength of the ultraviolet light emitted from the light source is in a predetermined range that includes an absorption peak specific to the functional water.

Abstract: A light-dimming device includes a switch including a switching device, a controller, and a power supply module. The power supply module includes a capacitor to be charged by a constant voltage circuit. The controller includes a driver circuit, a zero-cross detection circuit, a detecting circuit, and a control circuit, and receive electric power from the capacitor. The driver circuit drives the switching device in accordance with a PWM signal. The control circuit starts generation of a pulse, to be contained in the PWM signal, for turning on the switching device after the zero-cross detection circuit detects zero-cross and also a voltage across the capacitor is threshold or more.
