Title :
The technology of active power factor correction in current critical continuous mode
Abstract :
The paper presents the analysis of a power factor correction circuit employing critical continuous-mode boost converter. The relations between the maximum switching frequency, the maximum switch-off time and the input ranging from VinL to YinH are derived, and the calculating expression of the inductor is proposed. The experiment results show that the analysis is correct
