Electronic equipment and power supplies without any active or passive power factor correction (PFC) circuits have an input current waveform which has a poor power factor and high harmonic distortion.

In the quest for ever-greater power-supply efficiency, especially spanning light load to fully load, along with increasingly required power factor correction (PFC), designers have developed a wide ...
