An alternating current to direct current (AC-DC) converter is provided. The converter includes a rectifying unit configured to rectify an AC voltage that is being input, a boost converter unit connected to the rectifying unit and provided with a single inductor, a first switch, and a second switch formed thereto, a smoothing unit configured to smooth the voltage passing through the boost converter unit, and a control unit configured to control an ON/OFF of the first switch and the second switch such that the boost converter unit is operated as a power factor correction circuit or as an inrush current limiting circuit, so that the inrush current is stably controlled by reducing additional circuit structures configured for limiting an inrush current. |
