Abstract
A power converting apparatus is provided. The power converting apparatus includes a power converter configured to output a voltage to a load, and a controller configured to output a PWM signal which is generated in response to a voltage command to the power converter. The power converter includes a plurality of switching elements driven based on the PWM signal. The controller is configured to generate the PWM signal such that a first period during which a zero voltage is outputted and a second period during which a non-zero voltage is outputted are adjusted according to the voltage command. The controller is allowed to output the PWM signal which is set such that one first period and one or more second periods exist within an updating cycle of the voltage command, to the power converter.
