         [0030]    The working process of the inventive power conversion circuit is described as follows. 
         [0031]    The filter circuit  12  is used to filter noise in the AC, the rectification circuit  13  is used for AC-DC conversion, and the single stage power conversion circuit  14  is used to adjust a power factor of the power conversion circuit and detect the output current thereof.

         [0032]    When a node E of an input controlling end of the master switch S 1  is powered on, the node E is clamped at fixing electrical level, the switching on and off of the master switch S 1  is mainly controlled by the drive controlling transistor S 2 . During the switching on of the master switch S 1 , the current of the inductor L rises, when the master switch S 1  is switched off, due to the stray capacitance of the master switch S 1  and the diode D 1 , the voltage of a node D of an upper end of the master switch S 1  rises from zero (zero voltage turn-off), when the electric potential of the node D exceeds the electric potential of a node K of the DC load  15 , the diode D 1  is switched on, the current of the inductor L is output to the DC load  15  through the diode D 1 , the current of the inductor L drops from a peak value, when the current of the inductor L drops to zero, due to the resonance between the stray capacitance of the master switch Si and the diode D 1  and the inductor L, the electric potential of the upper node D of the master switch S 1  begins to drop, the voltage of the upper node D of the master switch S 1  will arrives at a valley value after a period of time.

In the working process of the power conversion circuit, if switching on duration of the master switch S 1  is increased, working current of the inductor L and current of the output load  15  are increased, if switching on duration of the master switch S 1  is decreased, the working current of the inductor L and the current of the output load  15  are decreased.

         [0050]      FIG. 5  can be referred at the same time, the current waveform of the inductor L is referred as I_L, the current waveform of the diode D 1  is referred as I_D 1 , the voltage waveform of the node D is referred as V_D, the waveform of the output signal of the sample keeping circuit  1  is referred as S_H_out, the waveform of the output signal of the synchronous detection circuit  5  is referred as Syn_out, the signal waveform of the output end Q of the D-flip flop DF 1  is referred as DF 1 _Q, the signal waveform of the inverting output end QB of the D-flip flop DF 2  is referred as DF 2 _QB. 
         [0051]    As shown in  FIG. 5 , the average value I_avr of the current output to the DC load  15  is equal to the average value of the I_D 1 , namely, equal to the value of multiplying a duty cycle by the value of dividing a peak value of the I_D 1  by 2. According to practical application, just a signal proportional to I_avr is needed. Next will describes how the current detection circuit  162  obtains the signal. 
         [0052]    When the master switch S 1  is switched on, the signal of the end U is input to the sample keeping circuit  1 . During the switching on of the master switch S 1 , the sample keeping circuit  1  keeps on sampling, output signals S_H_out are used to track the current I_L of the inductor L, the synchronous detection circuit  5  is switched off, the output signals of the synchronous detection circuit  5  are low level. 
         [0053]    When the switching on duration of the master switch S 1  is ended, the voltage V_F of the node F rises, the master switch S 1  is switched off, the electric potential V_D of the end D rises, when the electric potential of the node D approximates the electric potential of the node C, the current I_L of the inductor L discharge to the DC load  15  through the diode D 1 . The rising edge detection circuit  2  acts and outputs action signals to the sequential controlling circuit  4 , then the sample keeping circuit  1  is controlled to maintain sampling by the sequential controlling circuit  4 , the sample keeping circuit  1  maintains a voltage proportional to a peak current of the inductor L, the peak current of the inductor L is equal to a peak current of the diode D 1 , therefore, the output S_H_out of the sample keeping circuit  1  is proportional to a peak value of the current I_D 1  of the diode D 1 . 
         [0054]    Before the current I_L of the inductor L drops to zero, since the sample keeping circuit  1  maintains sampling, the signal remains the same all the time. The synchronous detection circuit  5  is switched on, the output S_H_out of the sample keeping circuit  1  is output to the lowpass filter  6  through the synchronous detection circuit  5 . As the current I_L of the inductor L discharges to the DC load  15  through the diode D 1 , the current I_L of the inductor L gradually drops. 
         [0055]    When the current I_L of the inductor L drops to zero, the electric potential of the node D begins to drop, when the signal indicating that the electric potential of the node D begins to drop is detected by the falling edge detection circuit  3 , the falling edge detection circuit  3  acts and outputs action signals to the sequential controlling circuit  4 , the sequential controlling circuit  4  switches off the synchronous detection circuit  5  to make the input signal of the lowpass filter  6  being zero. In the switching on duration, the average value of the input signals output to the lowpass filter  6  is directly proportional to the average value of the output current, namely, a signal output by the lowpass filter is directly proportional to the average value of the output current I_avr. 
         [0056]    The current signals output by the lowpass filter  6  and an internal reference value defined by the lowpass filter  6  are sent to the error amplifier Err_amp, if the average value of the output current is greater than the internal reference value, the output of the error amplifier Err_amp controls the switching on duration of the master switch S 1  to gradually decrease by the PWM controller U 1 , if the average value of the output current is smaller than the internal reference value, the output of the error amplifier Err_amp controls the switching on duration of the master switch  51  to gradually increase by the PWM controller U 1 . At last, the average value of the output current is equal to the internal reference value, and the output current is constant. 
         [0057]    After the switching off duration of the master switch S 1  is ended, the master switch S 1  is switched on again, the circuit enters the next circle. 
         [0058]    When the V_F is low level, the master switch S 1  is switched on, the end D 2 _QB of the D-flip flop DF 2  outputs high level. Signals of the current sample resistor R 2  are output to the field effect transistor N 1  of the sample keeping circuit  1 . A timing sequence of the signal applied on the grid of the field effect transistor N 1  is synchronous with the driving signal of the master switch S 1 . When the master switch S 1  is switched on, the controlling end  CTL  of the master switch S 1  is high level (being inverting to the V_F), the sample keeping circuit  1  keeps on sampling, the output of the D 1 _Q of the D-flip flop DF 1  of the sequential controlling circuit  4  is high level, the output of the D 2 _QB of the D-flip flop DF 2  is high level, the field effect transistor N 4  of the synchronous detection circuit  5  is grounded, the field effect transistor N 3  of the synchronous detection circuit  5  is switched off, and the output of the synchronous detection circuit  5  is zero. 
         [0059]    When the switching on duration of the master switch S 1  is ended, the master switch S 1  is switched off, the electrical level of the controlling end  CTL  of the master switch S 1  changes to low level, the sample keeping circuit  1  maintains the sampling, the D-flip flop DF 1  is reset, the output of the D 1 _Q of the D-flip flop DF 1  is low level, and a reset status of the D-flip flop DF 2  is terminated. As the master switch S 1  is switched off, the electric potential V_D of the upper end D rises, when the electric potential V_D approaches the electric potential of the node C, the rising edge detection circuit  2  acts, the output of the A 2  amplifier becomes higher, and then triggers the output of the D 2 _QB of the D-flip flop DF 2  to become lower, thereby switching on the field effect transistor N 3  of the synchronous detection circuit  5  and switching off the field effect transistor N 4  of the synchronous detection circuit  5 , the output signal of the sample keeping circuit  1  is output to the, input end of the low filter circuit  6 . At this moment, the current I_L of the inductor L discharges to the DC load  15 , the current gradually drops. 
         [0060]    Referring to  FIG. 4  again, as an inventive preferable embodiment, the N-channel field effect transistor N 1  in the falling edge detection circuit  3  of the current detection circuit  162  can be replaced by a diode D 3 . An anode of the diode D 3  is connected to the noninverting input end of the amplifier A 1 , a cathode of the diode D 3  is grounded. 
         [0061]    In the present invention, the power conversion circuit filters the nose in the AC by the filter circuit  12 , the rectification circuit  13  is used for AC-DC conversion, the single stage power conversion  14  is used for adjusting the power factor and adjusting the average value of the output current to be equal to the predefined value, therefore, the constant current output is obtained.
