Abstract
A converter device includes a rectifier circuit to rectify an AC voltage output from an AC power supply, a booster circuit including a plurality of reactors, a plurality of switching elements, and a plurality of backflow prevention elements to boost an output voltage of the rectifier circuit, a smoothing capacitor to smooth an output voltage of the booster circuit, a bus-current detection circuit to detect a value of a current that flows between the rectifier circuit and the booster circuit, a first filter circuit having a first filter time constant, a second filter circuit having a second filter time constant shorter than the first filter time constant, and a control unit to control an operation of the switching elements as a current value detected by the bus-current detection circuit is input to the control unit via the first filter circuit and the second filter circuit.
