A power conversion device and a control circuit are provided. The power conversion device includes a power conversion circuit and a control circuit. The control circuit includes a first controller and a second controller. The power conversion circuit includes an input capacitor, a rectifier circuit, and a power switch. The input capacitor is coupled to an input terminal of the power conversion device. The rectifier circuit converts an input AC power into a rectified power. The first controller operates the power switch to cause the power conversion circuit to convert the rectified power into an output power. The second controller detects a signal waveform at the input terminal, and controls the first controller in response to the signal waveform at the input terminal, so as to utilize the power switch to discharge the charge stored in the input capacitor.
