Abstract
The charge control concept is applied to a flyback power converter for the purpose of power factor correction (PFC). Using charge control, a flyback converter can operate in continuous conduction-mode (CCM) with unity power factor. The simplicity of the flyback circuit is maintained and the power handling capacity is increased. The properties of charge control related to flyback PFC application are studied. The design guidelines are presented. A 200 W prototype circuit is built. Experimental results show good application prospects.<>Keywords
