dc.description.abstract | It is very well known that the SEPIC and C´ uk
converters can operate as Automatic Power Factor Correctors
(APFCs) when the converter diode stops conducting during the
transistor OFF-state interval, thus achieving operation in the
well-known Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM). In order
to reduce de APFC size, the input inductance can be reduced.
However, if that inductance is not high enough, not only the
converter diode can stop conducting during the transistor OFFstate
interval, but also the input rectifier diodes. Considering the
number of diodes that can stop conducting, the aforementioned
scenario leads to three DCMs and, consequently, the operation
as APFC is not guaranteed anymore. In this paper, the line
current waveform of SEPIC and C´ uk converters operating in
any of the three aforementioned DCMs is studied in order to
evaluate their operation as APFC. The results show that even
in the unusual DCMs, the converters operate as quasi-ideal
APFCs, thus allowing the design of these converters with lower
value of the input inductance and, consequently, with higher
power density. The analysis is validated with simulation and
experimental results. | spa |
