When an abnormality is detected in an ON period of the output transistor, the control circuit turns off the output transistor or restricts a current value of the output transistor and switches a state of a diagnostic terminal from a first state to a second state, so as to switch a voltage level of the diagnostic terminal from a first level to a second level. During the ON period of the output transistor, when no abnormality is detected and the voltage level of the diagnostic terminal is changed from the first level to the second level, the control circuit turns off the output transistor.
