Provided is a power conversion device configured to convert electric power from a power source to a load, including: a boosting device including a boost rectification unit configured to prevent backflow of a current from the load side to the power source side, the boosting device being configured to change a voltage of power from the power source to a predetermined voltage based on a drive signal; a commutation device configured to perform commutation operation in which a current flowing through the boosting device is caused to flow into an other path based on a commutation signal; and a signal generating module device configured as a module to generate and send an output signal based on an input signal that is input thereto. The input signal has an on-pulse width greater than a length of time where the output signal generated by the signal generating module device is turned on.
