This paper presents the digital control of single-phase power factor correction(PFC) converter which has the variable gain according to the condition of inner control loop error. Generally the gain of inner current control loop in single-stage PFC converter has a constant magnitude. This has a bad influence on the power factor because current loop doesn't operate smoothly in the condition that input voltage is low In particular a digital controller has more time delay than an analog controller and degrades This drops the phase margin of the total digital PFC system,. It causes the problem that the gain of current control loop isn't increased enough. In addition the oscillation happens in the peak value of the input voltage open loop PFC system gain changes according to ac input voltage. These aspects make the design of the digital PFC controller difficult The digital PFC controller presented in this paper has a variable gain of current control loop according to input voltage. The 1kW converter was used to verify the efficiency of the digital PFC controller.

A digital current control scheme using virtual d-q transformation for a boost single-phase power factor correction (PFC) converter is proposed. The use of virtual d-q transformation in single-phase power converters is known to improve current control performance. However, the conventional virtual d-q transformation-based digital current control scheme cannot be directly applied to the boost single-phase PFC converter because the current and average voltage waveforms of the inductor used in the converter are not sinusoidal. To cope with this problem, this study proposes a virtual sinusoidal signal generation method that converts the current and average voltage waveform of the inductor into a sinusoidal waveform synchronized with the grid. Simulation and experimental results are provided to show that the virtual d-q transformation-based digital current control is successfully applied to the boost single-phase PFC converter with the aid of the proposed virtual sinusoidal signal generation method.

In this paper the digital control scheme of interleaved PFC for 3-phase modular UPS is presented. The interleaved PFC is composed of two identical PFC connected in parallel and each PFC is controlled by the interleaved switching signals which have the same switching frequency and the $180^{\circ}$ phase difference. As a consequence of the interleaving operation, the Interleaved PFC exhibits both lower current ripple at the input side and lower voltage ripple at the outside. Therefore, the switching and conduction losses as well as EMI levels can be significantly decreased. Simulation and experimental results verify the usefulness of the interleaved PFC.

This paper introduces a novel digital one cycle control (DOCC) boost power factor correction (PFC) converter. The proposed PFC converter realizes the FPGA-based DOCC control approach for single-phase PFC rectifiers without input voltage sensing or a complicated two-loop compensation design. It can also achieve a high power factor and the operation of low harmonic input current ingredients over universal loads in continuous conduction mode. The trailing triangle modulation adopted in this approach makes the acquisition of the average input current an easy process. The controller implementation is based on a boost topology power circuit with low speed, low-resolution A/D converters, and economical FPGA development board. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed PFC rectifier can obtain a PF value of up to 0.999 and a minimum THD of at least 1.9% using a 120W prototype.

This paper presents the digital controller using variable gain for single-phase power factor correction (PFC) converter. Generally, the gain of inner current control loop in single-stage PFC converter has a constant magnitude. This is why input current is distorted under low input voltage. In particular, a digital controller has more time delay than an analog controller which degrades characteristics of control loop. So, it causes the problem that the gain of current control loop isn't increased enough. In addition, the oscillation happens in the peak value of the input voltage open loop PFC system gain changes according to ac input voltage. These aspects make the design of the digital PFC controller difficult. In this paper, the improved digital control method for single-phase power factor converter is presented. The variable gain according to input voltage and input current help to improve current shape. The 800W converter is manufactured to verify the proposed control method.

부스트 PFC (Power Factor Correction)컨버터는 AC 입력 전류의 단일 역률과 낮은 THD (Total Harmonic Distortion)를 달성하기 위해 다양한 제어기법들이 연구되고 있다. 그중 인덕터 전류의 평균값을 전류지령에 추종하도록 제어하는 평균전류 모드 제어가 있으며 가장 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 오늘날 디지털 프로세서의 발달로 고도화된 디지털 제어가 가능해지면서 부스트 PFC 컨버터의 예측제어가 관심을 받고 있다. 예측제어에는 예측 알고리즘으로 듀티를 미리 생성하는 예측전류 모드 제어 및 모델을 기반으로 한 비용함수를 선정하여 스위칭 동작을 하는 모델예측제어로 분류된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 부스트 PFC 컨버터의 평균전류 모드 제어, 예측전류 모드 제어, 모델예측 전류 제어를 간단히 설명한다. 또한, 시뮬레이션을 통해 전체 부하 및 다양한 외란 조건에서의 전류 제어를 비교 분석한다.

This paper proposes an LED driving circuit with a digital controller, power factor correct (PFC) function, and low light flicker. The key topology of the proposed circuit is a conventional Flyback combined with a pre-stage. As a result, there will be less light flicker than with other one-stage PFC circuits. A digital controller, implemented using a low-cost microcontroller, dsPIC30F2020, will meet PFC and low light flicker. The experimental results validate the functionality of the proposed circuit.

This paper analyzes the effect of the admittance component for the digitally controlled single-phase bridgeless power factor correction (PFC) converter. To do this, it is shown how the digital delay effects such as the digital pulse-width modulation (DPWM) and the computation delays restrict the bandwidth of the converter. After that, the admittance effect of the entire digital control system is analyzed when the bridgeless PFC converter which has the limited bandwidth is connected to the grid. From this, the waveform distortion of the input current is explained and the compensation method for the admittance component is suggested to improve the quality of the input current. Both the simulations and the experiments are performed to verify the analyses taken in this paper for the 1 kW bridgeless PFC converter prototype.

This paper presents a novel predictive digital control method for boundary conduction mode PFC converters without the need for detecting the inductor current. In the proposed method, the inductor current is predicted by analytical equations instead of being detected by a sensing-resistor. The predicted zero-crossing point of the inductor current is determined by the values of the input voltage, output voltage and predicted inductor current. Importantly, the prediction of zero-crossing point is achieved in just a single switching cycle. Therefore, the errors in predictive calculation caused by parameter variations can be compensated. The prediction of the zero-crossing point with the proposed method has been shown to have good accuracy. The proposed method also shows high stability towards variations in both the inductance and output power. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed predictive digital control method for PFC converters.
