Abstract
A power conversion device includes: a dead time application unit which applies a dead time to only one of a pair of pulse signals; a current polarity detection unit which detects a polarity of an output current; and a gate signal selection unit which, if the polarity of the output current is positive, selects the one pulse signal, to which the dead time has been applied, as a gate signal for a positive arm and selects the other pulse signal as a gate signal for a negative arm, and, if the polarity of the output current is negative, selects the one pulse signal, to which the dead time has been applied, as the gate signal for the negative arm and selects the other pulse signal as the gate signal for the positive arm.
