Abstract
Disclosed are an inverter circuit, and air conditioner and refrigerator using the same. The inverter circuit includes a rectifier configured to rectify an input Alternating-Current (AC) voltage into a Direct-Current (DC) voltage; a smoothing portion configured to smoothen the DC voltage output from the rectifier; an inverter connected to a load, and configured to convert the DC voltage smoothened by the smoothing portion into an AC voltage, and to output the AC voltage to the load; and a suppressor installed between the rectifier and the smoothing portion, and configured to suppress an overvoltage or overcurrent of a DC link to which the DC voltage from the smoothing portion is applied.
