Title:
POWER FACTOR IMPROVEMENT CIRCUIT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/048074
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This power factor improvement circuit comprises: a serial circuit in which a reactor L and a control switch Q1 are serially connected to both terminals of a rectifier circuit 2 that rectifies an input voltage from an AC power supply; a serial circuit of a synchronous rectification switch Q2 and an output capacitor C1 at two main terminals of the control switch; and a control circuit 10 which alternately turns on/off the control switch and the synchronous rectification switch so that an output voltage of the output capacitor becomes a first prescribed value, and controls an on time of the control switch so that a peak value of a current flowing through the control switch is proportional to the input voltage. The control circuit turns on/off the control switch and the synchronous rectification switch in order to adjust a reverse excitation amount that reversely excites the reactor by causing a current, flowing through a reactor, to flow backward from an output voltage side to an input voltage side, wherein the reverse excitation amount is adjusted to a second prescribed value regardless of an input voltage Vi.
