CHARGING DEVICE
First Claim
1. A charging device comprising:
- a converter portion for outputting a charging voltage to a charging subject; and
a control portion for outputting a control signal having a pulse width determined based on a value of the charging voltage to a switching element in the converter portion, thereby rendering the switching element in an on-state for a time period corresponding to the pulse width, wherein,the control portion changes an interval at which to output the control signal in accordance with the value of the charging voltage, thereby lengthening the output interval of the control signal as the value of the charging voltage decreases.

Abstract
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a charging device capable of precisely outputting charging power to a battery or the like within a broad voltage range of tens-to-hundreds of volts. This charging device comprises: a converter unit that outputs a charging voltage to a battery and a control unit that outputs a control signal of a pulse width determined on the basis of the voltage value of the charging voltage to a switching element of the converter unit, thereby setting the switching element to a conducting state for only a time corresponding to the pulse width. The control unit changes the output interval for the control signal in accordance with the output interval for the control signal as the voltage value of the charging voltage decreases.
