Title

Comparison of basic converter topologies for power factor correction

Abstract

Basic types of dc-dc converters, when operating in discontinuous conduction mode, have self power factor correction (PFC) property, that is, if these converters are connected to the rectified ac line, they have the capability to give higher power factor by the nature of their topologies. Input current feedback is unnecessary when these converters are employed to improve power factor. In this paper, basic types of dc-dc converter topologies are studied to investigate their self-PFC capabilities. Their input characteristics will be compared and their input line current waveforms will be predicted.
