Pfc circuit

Abstract

In one embodiment, a power factor correction (PFC) circuit can include: (i) a rectifier bridge and a PFC converter coupled to an input capacitor; (ii) a harmonic wave compensation circuit configured to shift a phase of a DC input voltage provided from the rectifier bridge, where the harmonic wave compensation circuit comprises a phase of about −45° when a corner frequency is about 50 Hz; and (iii) a PFC control circuit configured to control the PFC converter, where the PFC control circuit comprises a first sampling voltage, and the harmonic wave compensation circuit is configured to control a phase of the first sampling voltage to lag a phase of the DC input voltage by about 45°.
