ABSTRACT:
First threshold corresponding to a large electric current capable of breaking a MOS-FET even if the electric current flows even in a short period is provided for a difference amplifying circuit and second threshold lower than the first threshold is stored in a memory. If a detected electric current value is higher than the first threshold or if a CPU determines that an electric current higher than the second threshold has flowed continuously for a period longer than a predetermined period, the semiconductor switch is switched off.
