ABSTRACT: In this paper, a simplified Power Factor Correction (PFC) converter based on Single-Ended
Primary Inductor Converter (SEPIC) topology is proposed. In the proposed converter, a bridge diode at the
input stage is deleted to reduce the conduction loss and improve the efficiency. Since the proposed ...
