Abstract :
To improve power factor and to meet IEC 555-2 harmonic requirements, input power factor correction circuits have been used, widely, in the power supply industry. In response to the trend, this study proposes and investigates a simple controller for a single-phase AC to DC rectifier with input power factor correction
