Abstract:
A converter controller controls a switching converter. A current detection circuit generates a current detection signal V CS  that corresponds to a coil current I L  of the switching converter. An error amplifier amplifies the difference between the current detection signal V CS  and an analog signal V ADIM  that indicates a current to be supplied to a semiconductor light source, so as to generate an error signal V ERR . A hysteresis comparator compares the current detection signal V CS  with an upper threshold signal V THH  and a lower threshold signal V THL  determined according to the error signal V ERR , and generates a control pulse S CNT  that corresponds to a comparison result. A driver drives a switching transistor according to the control pulse S CNT .

Claim (Index 25):
A vehicular lamp comprising:\n a first semiconductor light source and a second semiconductor light source each having one end coupled to a common node; a first switch arranged in series with the first semiconductor light source; a second switch arranged in series with the second semiconductor light source; and the lighting circuit according to  claim 1 , structured to supply a driving current to the first semiconductor light source and the second semiconductor light source, wherein the first switch and the second switch are structured to switch on and off according to respective PWM dimming signals configured as logic signals that are opposite to each other.
