Flyback with Half Wave Rectifier for Single Stage Power Factor Correction

The flyback converter type single-stage converter and a half wave rectifier with time-multiplexing control (TMC) for power factor correction is proposed. It has the advantage of better magnetic core utilization and better performance for high power applications. The major portion of the input is transferred to the load through ac-dc conversion. And the part of the input power is delivered to the auxiliary output through the flyback conversion and stored in the capacitor. The voltage ripple of the main output can also be reduced. With TMC the power processes can be achieved by single transformer to reduce the cost and the size of the converter. The simulation result of the proposed converter presents, simplicity, high power factor with low cost and size. Index Terms -Power Factor Correction (PFC), Single –Stage, Flyback Converter.
