Abstract: A power converter apparatus includes a switching circuit generating an AC voltage by switching a DC voltage at a predetermined switching frequency, and a filter circuit converting the AC voltage from the switching circuit into the DC voltage by low-pass filtering the AC voltage. The filter circuit includes first and second bypass capacitors, and an inductor. The first bypass capacitor bypasses noise of a first frequency component of the AC voltage from the switching circuit, and the second bypass capacitor bypasses noise of a second frequency component of the AC voltage from the switching circuit, which is lower than the first frequency component. The inductor is between the first and second bypass capacitors, and the inductance thereof is set so that a resonance frequency of the filter circuit is lower than multiple times the switching frequency by insertion of the inductor, thereby reducing the switching noise flowing to the load.

The switching circuit generates an AC voltage by switching a DC voltage at a predetermining switching frequency, and the filter circuit converts the AC voltage from the switching circuit into the DC voltage by low-pass filtering the AC voltage.

The inductor is inserted between the first and second bypass capacitors, and the inductance thereof is set so that a resonance frequency of the filter circuit is lower than the switching frequency by insertion of the inductor.
