Patent ID: 11451163

Abstract:
A power converter 10 includes: flying capacitor circuits 11 and 12 connected in series so as to be in parallel with a DC power supply; flying capacitor circuits 13 and 14 connected in series so as to be in parallel with the DC power supply; switching elements S1 and S2 connected in series between output terminals of the flying capacitor circuits 11 and 12; switching elements S3 and S4 connected in series between output terminals of the flying capacitor circuits 13 and 14; a first output end OUT1 provided at a midpoint between the switching elements S1 and S2; and a second output end OUT2 provided at a midpoint between the switching elements S3 and S4, wherein a node between the flying capacitor circuits 11 and 12 and a node between the flying capacitor circuits 13 and 14 are connected to a midpoint of a DC power supply voltage.
