Abstract
A method for controlling a totem-pole PFC circuit. When an alternating current of an input end of a totem-pole PFC circuit is in a positive half period, if a previous switching period is less than specified duration, after charging of a PFC inductor is completed, a switch that enables the PFC inductor to be discharged is first delayed for specified threshold duration, and then the switch that enables the PFC inductor to be discharged is turned on, so that the switch that enables the PFC inductor to be discharged is turned on only once. In an existing PFC application, when an input voltage is in a positive half period, a switch that enables a PFC inductor to be discharged needs to be turned on twice.
