Abstract
Provided is a power conversion device that can suppress interference between control of input current from an AC power supply and voltage control for a DC capacitor to perform both the controls with high accuracy, and can reduce the capacitance and size of the DC capacitor. A power conversion circuit includes a rectification bridge circuit, a leg circuit having upper and lower legs connected in series, a DC capacitor, a smoothing capacitor, and a reactor. A control circuit performs PWM control of the leg circuit by generating a duty cycle so as to control a voltage of the DC capacitor while controlling an input current from an AC power supply, in a control cycle. When the duty cycle is generated, a sum of duty cycles is made constant in one cycle for each leg.
