ABSTRACT:
A power converter comprises: a rectifier composed of a plurality of bridge-connected diodes; reactors each connected in series in each power line of the rectifier; a chopper circuit having two switching elements connected in series between two DC output terminals of the rectifier; star connection capacitors, each of one end thereof being connected to the power source side of each reactor and each of the other end thereof being connected in common to a mutual connection point of the two switching elements of the chopper circuit; a smoothing capacitor for smoothing an output voltage of the rectifier; and ring connection capacitors each connected between two power lines and further between the AC power source and each of the reactors.
