Abstract
A high-quality rectifier for supplying resistive loads is presented. It features high power factor, low input current distortion and high efficiency. It is a step-down power converter and its device stresses are the same as for a buck power converter, while input current is continuous. The power converter, suitable for heating and lighting applications, is analyzed and experimentally tested on a 1 kW prototype
