Abstract
When the on-time is constant during a line cycle, the input power factor (PF) of critical conduction mode buck-buck/boost power factor correction converter is low. A variable on-time control (VOTC) scheme is put forward in this paper to realize high PF. By utilizing the input and output voltage to modulate the on-time of buck and buck/boost switch, we can realize high-input PF with low-total harmonic distortion within the universal input voltage range. The operating principles and the comparative analysis of the converter with conventional constant on-time control (COTC) and VOTC are analyzed. The proposed control scheme achieves high PF and efficiency as compared with the COTC. A 100-W prototype was built up to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
