Abstract
A power converter circuit and an associated method of converting an AC power supply. The power converter circuit comprises: a supply rectifier circuit (2) for rectifying an AC supply power to generate a rectified supply power; an inverter circuit (3) for receiving the rectified supply power to generate an inverted supply power; a load rectifier circuit (4) for rectifying the inverted supply power to generate a rectified load power for supplying a load current to a load (5); and a boost circuit (6) driven by the load current to provide a boosted voltage to the rectified supply power.
