Abstract
A power module, a totem-pole power factor correction circuit, and a control circuit thereof. In response to a case in which a phase value of a transient voltage of an input voltage of the totem-pole power factor correction circuit is within a predetermined phase range, and an absolute value of a voltage value is less than a predetermined voltage value, the control circuit controls a main power switch in the totem-pole power factor correction circuit to be turned on and off, and controls an auxiliary power switch to remain off.
