The need for the current waveform to track the voltage on a three-phase power system leads to a second set of requirements, in addition to those for a single-phase power factor correction (PFC) system ...

IR's Paul Schimel explains how power factor correction (PFC) allows a piece of electronics to draw higher line power. A good friend of mine in the professional audio business recently said that audio ...

Power factor correction (PFC) converters play a pivotal role in modern power electronics by ensuring an optimised alignment between the input current and the supply voltage. This alignment enhances ...

The course consists of three weeks of materials and is focused on modeling and control of grid-tied power electronics. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to understand, analyze, model, ...

Quasi-active PFC architecture improves on the single-powerstage converter with PFC technique, increasing efficiency while allowing implementations of a choice of dc-dc topologies. The ac-dc off-line ...
