Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a power converting device includes a rectifier bridge configured to pulsate an AC voltage to generate a pulsating voltage, a first smoothing capacitor configured to smooth the pulsating voltage to generate a DC voltage, a primary winding connected to the first smoothing capacitor, a switch circuit configured to switch the DC voltage supplied from the first smoothing capacitor to the primary winding, and a first discharge circuit. The first discharge circuit includes a first discharge resistor configured to discharge electric charges remaining on the first smoothing capacitor and a first switch element configured to release the first discharge resistor from the first smoothing capacitor if the AC voltage is supplied and to connect the first discharge resistor to the first smoothing capacitor if the AC voltage is not supplied and the electric charges remain on the first smoothing capacitor.

Claim (Index 9):
The apparatus according to  claim 8 , wherein\n the first discharge circuit further comprises a light emitting diode for emitting light while the AC voltage is supplied, the second discharge circuit further comprises a phototransistor that is in a conduction state while the light emitting diode is emitting light, the second switch element has a control terminal connected to the second smoothing capacitor, and the phototransistor connects the control terminal of the second switch element to ground if the phototransistor is in an ON state and releases the control terminal of the second switch element from the ground if the phototransistor is in an OFF state.
