Abstract:
1. A switching apparatus that switches a connection state between a first terminal and a second terminal, the apparatus comprising: a switch that switches the connection state according to a control voltage supplied thereto; a driving section that provides the switch with the control voltage corresponding to a control signal supplied thereto; a changing section that changes the control voltage output from the driving section, according to a designated switching time; and a calibration section for detecting the control voltage corresponding to the designated switching time prior to the switching of the switch, the calibration section configured to receive said control signal and to measure at least one of a voltage between the first terminal and the second terminal and an output voltage applied to a load connected to one of the first terminal and the second terminal, the calibration section further configured to perform at least one of changing the control voltage corresponding to the designated switching time and setting an adjustment amount by which a timing at which the control signal is supplied to the driving section is adjusted.
