Patent ID: 8854844

Claim:
An AC/DC converter, comprising: a rectifier circuit, which converts an alternate current (AC) into a direct current (DC), having an input port and an output port, wherein the input port receives the AC, and the DC comes out via the output port; and a power factor correction circuit comprising a first inductor, a second inductor, a first capacitor, a second capacitor, a first diode and a second diode; wherein an end of the first inductor is electrically connected to a positive pole of the output port of the rectifier circuit, and the other end thereof is electrically connected to two series routes which are in parallel to each other, wherein the first capacitor and the second diode are on one of the series route; an end of the first capacitor is electrically connected to the first inductor, and the other end thereof is electrically connected to a cathode of the second diode, and an anode of the second diode is electrically connected to a ground terminal of the output port of the rectifier circuit; the second inductor and the second capacitor are on the other series route; an end of the second inductor is electrically connected to the first inductor, and the other end thereof is electrically connected to an end of the second capacitor, the other end of the second capacitor is electrically connected to the ground terminal of the output port of the rectifier circuit; the second capacitor is connected to a loading in parallel; an anode of the first diode is electrically connected to a point between the first capacitor and the cathode of the second diode, and a cathode of the first diode is electrically connected to a point between the second inductor and the second capacitor.
