Abstract:
The power supply apparatus includes a current detection unit configured to detect a current that flows through a first switching element of a transformer, and a control unit controls a turn-on time of the first switching element based on a feedback voltage from a secondary side of the transformer, controls a turn-on time of a second switching element based on a detection result of the current detection unit, and performs switching between a continuous control and an intermittent control based on the feedback voltage, the continuous control being a control to perform an operation of continuing a first period, the intermittent control being a control to perform an operation of alternately repeating the first period and a second period.

Claim (Index 19):
An image forming apparatus according to  claim 18 , comprising a controller configured to control the image forming unit and the power supply apparatus,\n wherein the controller outputs a signal to control a switching unit to switch between the continuous control and the intermittent control.
