Abstract

This paper proposes a novel single-stage light-emitting diode (LED) driver for street-lighting applications with power factor corrections (PFC). The presented driver integrates a modified bridgeless PFC ac-dc converter with a half-bridge-type LLC dc-dc resonant converter into a single-stage conversion circuit topology. The proposed ac-dc resonant driver provides input current shaping, and it offers attributes of lowered switching losses to the soft-switching functions obtained on two power switches and two output-rectifier diodes. The proposed driver features cost-effectiveness, high circuit efficiency (>92%), high power factor (>0.99) and low input current total harmonics distortion (<;8%). A prototype driver is developed for supplying a 144-W-rated LED street-lighting module with utility-line input voltages ranging from 100 to 120 V, and experimental results demonstrate the functionalities of the proposed LED driver.
