Abstract
A power conversion device includes an AC power source configured to output an AC voltage, a DC power source configured to output a plurality of DC voltages having different levels, an inverter configured to receive the AC voltage and the plurality of DC voltages and output an output voltage by boosting the AC voltage in a booster mode in accordance with first and second control signals, the booster mode being a mode in which a level of the AC voltage is smaller than a predetermined value, a reactor configured to smooth the output voltage of the inverter, and a control circuit configured to generate the first and second control signals using a first and second carrier signals having different frequencies, respectively, in the booster mode, and selectively output the first or second control signal in accordance with the level of the AC voltage from the AC power source.
