Abstract :
A new ac-dc converter is proposed and its experimental results are also presented. This AC- DC converter does not require any inductor and any high voltage capacitor in input rectification. It also shows very low stand-by power consumption compared to conventional switching mode power supply (SMPS) ac-dc converters while it reveals a drawback in applications requiring an electrical isolation of input and output. Our proposed AC-DC converter can be realized into a single chip of IC.
