Abstract

See full text

In a power supply device the bridge circuit is configured such that a plurality of series circuits of two inverse parallel connection circuits of a semiconductor switch and a diode are connected in parallel. The power supply device includes a control unit configured to control the semiconductor switch such that a voltage between AC terminals of the bridge circuit becomes a zero voltage only during a prescribed time period before and after two zero crossing points in one cycle of the input current and such that the voltage becomes a positive-negative voltage in which the output voltage is a peak current value during other time periods. Consequently, a power factor of the power receiving circuit is improved and a loss of an entire device is inhibited, and a size and a cost of the entire device may be reduced.
