Abstract
A method of multi-path power factor correction includes providing a plurality of energy transfer paths from a voltage-varying input to an output; delivering a first fraction of available input energy to one or more energy storage networks at the input of at least one of the plurality of energy transfer paths; delivering a second fraction of available input energy to the output; and adjusting the first fraction and second fraction for facilitating outputting a substantially constant output and for controlling the energy drawn from the input.
