Abstract

Power factor correction (PFC) circuits are used for many electronic circuits fed from the electrical grid. Today, the most common PFC circuit is based on a Boost converter, which provides a voltage increasing at its output. Since many loads require a lower voltage than the grid voltage, the BOOST PFC compels an additional level of conversion between the PFC and the load. This paper proposes an innovative topology of a PFC rectifier, a descendant of Buckboost topology, that supplies three levels of output voltage. The t-type Buckboost PFC rectifier (TBPR) is unique due to its ability to be step-down \ up the mains voltage in a single stage. The operation principles of the rectifier on continuous conduction mode (CCM) are presented, and the proposed theory is validated by simulations for closed-loop operation.
