Abstract

An AC power supply and a method for dynamically controlling the output current thereof are disclosed. An output voltage stop signal is used to disable a DC/AC converter from outputting. During a period that the DC/AC converter stops its output, the output current of the DC/AC converter is measured and is fed back to a output current control device as an output current feedback signal to produce a deviation. Using the difference between the output current feedback signal of the DC/AC converter and the deviation, an approximate DC value of the output current of the DC/AC converter is calculated. With reference to the approximate DC value, the DC/AC converter can be controlled so that the DC current injection in the output current is approximately zero.
