Abstract
An AC-to-DC conversion apparatus is provided, and which includes a first switch-element, an output capacitor and a bridgeless power-factor-correction (PFC) circuit. The bridgeless PFC circuit is coupled to an AC input, and includes a first inductor, a second inductor and a bridge circuit constructed by second to fifth switch-elements. The first switch-element is connected between bridgeless PFC circuit and the output capacitor. Under such circuit configuration and suitable control manner, the common-mode interference in the provided AC-to-DC conversion apparatus is lowered and thus reducing the power loss.
