DRIVING CIRCUIT, SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE HAVING DRIVING CIRCUIT, AND SWITCHING REGULATOR AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT USING DRIVING CIRCUIT AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

摘要

Disclosed is a driving circuit that includes a switching element configured to be connected between an input terminal and an output node; a first power supply circuit configured to generate a first voltage; and a first driving circuit configured to drive the switching element with an output thereof using a voltage of the output node as a reference negative-side power supply voltage and the first voltage as a positive-side power supply voltage. The voltage of the output node is used as a reference negative-side power supply voltage of the first power supply.
