摘要:When a circuit is activated, bases of transistors Q1 and Q2 making up a first current mirror circuit 7 are grounded through switch means 10, whereby a current is forcibly made to flow into the bases of the transistors Q1 and Q2. Thus, the circuit operation can be made reliable at the activation time. A part of load current is shunted with good accuracy via a resistor R1 having a first resistance value of a predetermined magnification of a resistance value of a shunt resistor Rs, the first current mirror circuit 7, and a second current mirror circuit 8, and the output end of the shunted current is grounded via a resistor R2 having a second resistance value, so that an output voltage VOUT proportional to a load current IL can be obtained with good accuracy from the resistor R2 and the load current IL can be found with good accuracy from the output voltage VOUT. <IMAGE>
