Abstract :
This paper presents enhanced power conversion efficiency of power factor correction pre-regulator with high power factor capability. The circuit employs both active and passive power factor correction techniques in different time durations. The advantages of this approach are high power conversion efficiency and low output voltage stress on MOSFET and bulk capacitor. The discussion covers design consideration and circuit operation. Experiments were performed to verify the approach whether effective
