An apparatus is capable of improving the power factor of a power supply powered by a high power line and a ground power line. The apparatus comprises a line voltage detector and an ON time controller. The line voltage detector provides a scaled voltage to represent a line voltage of the high power line. The ON time controller has a valley voltage detector, which provides, in response to the scaled voltage, a valley representative representing a valley voltage of the line voltage. The ON time controller controls an ON time of a power switch in the power supply in response to the valley representative.
