Zusammenfassung:A pulse generator includes a mode controller that detects a state in which there has been no transition of a pulse signal to the off level for a given cycle (period). When such a state is detected, the pulse generator transits to a skip mode. In the skip mode, the period is repeatedly switched between: (i) a first period in which the pulse signal is maintained at the on level over multiple cycles; and (ii) a second period in which the pulse signal is forcibly switched to the off level so as to charge the bootstrap capacitor by means of a bootstrap circuit.
