Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides a state detection device, which is designed in a power supply circuit including a feedback control unit configured to perform feedback control based on a difference between a feedback voltage corresponding to an output voltage and a reference voltage; and an output capacitor configured to smooth the output voltage. The state detection device is configured to detect a state of the output capacitor. The state detection device includes target value varying unit and a detector. The target value varying unit is configured to increase a target value of the output voltage. The detector is configured to detect the state of the output capacitor based on a change in the output voltage while the output capacitor is being charged as the target value of the output voltage rises or while the output capacitor is being discharged after the target value of the output voltage rises.
