Abstract: The present invention provides a method of improving efficiency in a full load region in a PFC power source of an active filter method by controlling a switch circuit of the PFC power source in association with an output power of the PFC power source. A pair of two switches controlling charging/discharging an inductor is provided. A MOSFET switch having a small current capacity is used as one of the switches, and an IGBT switch of a large current capacity is used as the other switch. When an output of a voltage dividing circuit for dividing voltage of an output terminal of the PFC power source is smaller than a threshold voltage, only the MOSFET switch is operated. When the output exceeds a threshold voltage, the IGBT switch is also operated.
