Abstract
A power converting apparatus includes a first arm including a switching element and a switching element connected in series, a second arm connected in parallel with the first arm and including a switching element and a switching element connected in series, a reactor having one end connected to the switching element and the switching element and the other end connected to a single-phase alternating-current power supply, and a smoothing capacitor connected in parallel with the first arm and the second arm. The power converting apparatus includes a driving circuit driving the switching element, a bootstrap circuit, and a diode adjusting a power supply voltage, wherein a first voltage at which a forward current starts to flow to the diode is lower than a second voltage at which a forward current starts to flow in a body diode formed in the second switching element.
