A Novel Method for Elimination of Line-Current Harmonics in Single-Stage PFC Switching Regulators
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper studies a particular single-stage power-factor-correction (PFC) switching regulator employing a discontinuous-conduction-mode (DCM) boost-input cell and a continuous-current-mode (CCM) forward output cell. Although this single-stage PFC regulator can provide a reasonably high power factor when its PFC stage is operating in discontinuous mode, substantial reduction in line-current harmonics is possible by applying a suitable frequency-modulation scheme. This paper derives a frequency-modulation scheme and proposes a practical implementation using a simple translinear analog circuit. A quantitative analysis on the total harmonics distortion (THD) of the line current when the circuit is subject to a limited range of frequency variation is presented along with some considerations for practical design. Experimental data obtained from a prototype confirms the effectiveness of the proposed frequency-modulation scheme. The proposed analog translinear circuit allows custom integrated circuit (IC) implementation, making it a viable low-cost solution to the elimination of line-current harmonics in switching regulators.
