Abstract

Disclosed is a method for operating a rectifier circuit, a control circuit for operating a rectifier circuit, and a power converter. The method includes operating the rectifier circuit () in a PFC mode, wherein operating the rectifier circuit () in the PFC mode includes regulating an output voltage (Udc) of the rectifier circuit (). Regulating the output voltage (Udc) includes operating a switch () of the rectifier circuit () at a fixed switching frequency (fsw), and regulating the output voltage (Udc) includes regulating the output voltage (Udc) dependent on at least one operating parameter of the rectifier circuit () such that the switch () is operated under ZVS conditions.
