Abstract

The proposed sinusoidal-wave synthesis (SWS) and the optimized THD control (OTC) improve power factor (PF) and total harmonic distortion (THD) over a wide line voltage range. The SWS detects the input line root-mean-square (rms) voltage to generate the digital equivalent code to the OTC for optimizing the THD by tuning the on-time value. Besides, the SWS and the OTC provide a feedforward path to reduce the ripple of the feedback voltage for further improving the THD. Therefore, the PFC converter can keep high PF and low THD over a wide line voltage. Experimental results demonstrate the PF is higher than 0.99 and the THD is 1.7% at VAC of 90-110V by the test circuit fabricated in TSMC 800V UHV process.
