Abstract
A high power factor control circuit is disclosed, which is used in an AC/DC converter. The converter includes a rectification module, a conversion module and a load. The rectification module receives AC power and rectifies it into a DC current, and the conversion module converts the DC current to drive power as desired by the load and provides it to the load. The conversion module includes a conversion element including an inductive element and a switching element. The control circuit includes a peak limiting signal generator and a switching element control module. The peak limiting signal generator receives a reference signal and produces at least one peak limiting signal from a sample signal. The switching element control module is configured to control switching of the switching element so that, within at least half a line-frequency period, a value of the ripple in the output current flowing through the load is not greater than a limit value.
