Abstract :
Bifurcation analysis is performed to a power-factor-correction (PFC) boost converter to examine the fast-scale instability problem. Computer simulations and analysis reveal the possibility of period-doubling for some intervals within the line cycle. The results allow convenient prediction of stability boundaries. Analytical equations and design curves are given to facilitate the selection of parameter values to guarantee stable operation.
