Abstract

A simple PWM full-bridge converter that integrates input power factor correction (PFC) with DC-DC conversion is examined in the paper. The converter´s operation is analyzed, and the results of the analysis are used to determine its steady-state characteristics. A design procedure for the selection of components is derived and demonstrated with an example. The feasibility of the converter and its ability to satisfy the IEC 1000-3-2 Class D requirements for electrical equipment are shown with results obtained from an experimental prototype
