Abstract :
A fast response full-bridge power factor corrector (FBPFC) is presented in this paper. The power converter is combined by two interleaved boost cells and a conventional full bridge power converter. As the interleaving technique is applied, the input ripple current of the FBPFC is reduced. Experimental result shows that the maximum power factor is 0.98, even without an input filter
