Original Abstract Submitted
In a switch device, an output voltage output by a microcomputer is input to one end of a resistor. A driving circuit switches a main switch on or off according to a resistor voltage at the other end of the resistor. When all of a plurality of specific voltages included in a plurality of output voltages output by the microcomputer are an output threshold or more, an AND circuit of an adjustment circuit reduces the resistor voltage.
