A new single-stage power factor correction (SSPFC) converter is proposed for the adapter
application, which is composed of a flyback converter, a feedback winding and a front-end …

A flyback-based single-stage power-factor-correction scheme with time-multiplexing control
(TMC) is proposed. As a portion of the input power will be transferred to the output after the …

This paper presents a new transformerless single-stage single-switch (S4) converter which
integrates a buck-type power factor correction cell with a buck-type dc–dc output cell in a …

This invention provides an electronic ballast for a fluorescent lamp, including a rectifier for
converting an alternating current input voltage into a direct current output voltage, and a …

This paper presents a model predictive current control applied to a new topology of single-
switch three-level (SSTL) active rectifier, which is exemplified in an application for single …

This paper presents a single-stage bidirectional power electronic transformer (PET) for
lighting systems as a three-phase electronic ballast. The lighting system supplies multilamp …

A single-stage soft-switching converter is proposed for universal line voltage applications. A
boost type of active-clamp circuit is used to achieve zero-voltage switching operation of the …

Although compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) have been on the market for a long time, many
of them do not achieve the same power factor as the incandescent lamps do, which presents …

This paper proposes a novel single stage single switch resonant inverter with high power
factor for electronic ballast. The power factor correction circuit is at the input side. It is …

In this paper a new configuration of the two-flyback-based high-power-factor electronic
ballast is proposed. The ballast is aimed to supply high intensity discharge (HID) lamps with …
