Abstract
A booster is mounted on a vehicle having an idle stop function. The booster boosts an input voltage supplied from a battery, and outputs the boosted input voltage to an in-vehicle device. The booster includes a booster circuit and an output voltage sensor. The booster circuit is a chopper-type, and includes a reactor having one end connected to the battery and a switching element connected between an other end of the reactor and a ground. The output voltage sensor detects an output voltage of the booster circuit.
