Abstract
There is provided a driving apparatus for driving an interleaved power factor correction circuit including a first main switch and a second main switch performing a switching operation with a predetermined phase difference and a first auxiliary switch and a second auxiliary switch forming a transformation path for surplus power existing before an ON operation of the first main switch and a second main switch, respectively, including: an input unit obtaining an input signal; a current sensing unit obtaining information regarding a current of the interleaved power factor correction circuit; and an output unit outputting a first control signal with respect to the first main switch, a third control signal with respect to the second main switch, a second control signal with respect to the first auxiliary switch, and a fourth control signal with respect to the second auxiliary switch, based on the input signal and the current information.
