A power factor correction converter capable of fast adjusting load functions to (a) convert a single-phase AC voltage into a DC voltage output; (b) control an input current and an input voltage for a correspondent electrical phase, namely the power factor that is 1; and (c) control a DC output voltage level. The converter is provided with a booster-based AC-DC converter as a core, in which the circuit includes a rectification circuit, a switching circuit consisting of a DC inductor and a power crystal, an energy-saving capacitor, a protection circuit, a microprocessor, and auxiliary circuits around. The power factor control, output voltage, and current control and filter modules function in the form of software program instead of conventional hardware circuits. Further, a powerful controller uses an output current feedback to enhance the DC output voltage to suppress the disturbance of load.
