Abstract
An alternating current to direct current conversion circuit includes N first power converters instead of a boost circuit including a power switch with a high withstand voltage. The N first power converters each have an input end and theses input ends are connected in series, to perform power factor correction. Therefore, the alternating current to direct current conversion circuit includes no power switch with a high withstand voltage, so that the alternating current to direct current conversion circuit has a small volume, low switching loss, less energy loss, and good heat dissipation, thereby increasing power density.
