Digital-Based Critical Conduction Mode Control for Three-Level Boost PFC Converter

Conventional critical conduction mode (CRM) control for many boost-derived power factor correction (PFC) circuits forms triangular inductor current. For three-level boost (TLB) converter, the conventional method is unattractive because losses increase but waveform quality remains unchanged, compared to other topologies. In order to obtain higher efficiency and improved waveform qualities, this art...
