Abstract :
This paper describes a high density power factor correction converter for AC-DC applications with sinusoidal input current. After analysis of the thermal behaviour of several types of insulated-metal substrates (IMS), study and design have been implemented on IMS with surface mount components. Experimental results are discussed for a 1 kW prototype operating at 100 kHz
