| Description | Power quality is a critical issue in power systems. This paper proposes a bridgeless boost converter to increase the power factor of power systems using a utility line source for raising power quality. To reduce input and output current ripple, an interleaving manner is adopted in the proposed power system. When the interleaving bridgeless boost converter is used to implement power factor correction (PFC), it needs two bridgeless boost converters to process power during one switching cycle. In order to simplify the proposed bridgeless boost converter, two sets of switches in the conventional bridgeless boost one are integrated to reduce component counts. With this approach, the proposed bridgeless boost converter uses four switches to implement PFC features. Therefore, the proposed boost converter can increase conversion efficiency and decrease component counts, resulting in a higher conversion efficiency, lower cost and more simplicity for driving circuits. Finally, a prototype with a universal input voltage source (AC 90 V~265V) under an output voltage of 400V and a maximum output power of 1kW has been implemented to verify the feasibility of the proposed bridgeless boost converter. |
