Abstract

Single-phase boost power factor correction (PFC) are widely used in industrial applications to improve power factor (PF) of rectifiers because they play an important role in improving the efficiency of battery charging systems, especially in optimizing the Power Factor and reducing energy consumption. In this paper, small signal analysis of PFC circuit is detailed to present relationship between output load current, AC input current and duty ratio of semiconductor device. Under this approach, series resistors of inductor and capacitor, drop voltages of semiconductor devices are considered in small-signal model. Transfer functions of PFC have been investigated based on small-signal models. Parameters of proportional-integral (PI) controllers are presented to control average value of output current and power factor of AC input source. Operating principle, component selections are also presented in this paper. Simulation results for RE load are introduced to verify the PFC circuit in battery charger applications. A 100-W laboratory prototype with resistive load  is built to validate the proposed controllers.
